Badly need ability to edit remote files over SSH using local Spyder.

Anatoly, since you're on Linux you can use sshfs, which lets you mount a directory in a remote machine as a local filesystem through ssh. Then you can use Spyder to open all the files you need from there.

Of course, you can add some functionality to do this process automatically from Spyder

The advantage of cross-platform editors that all their features are, well, cross-platform, so you don't need to think about platform anymore once you've mastered them.

Adding SSH will surely add more dependencies to Spyder. Perhaps a plugin would be a better option. Should we add Component-Plugins label to this tracker to filter out features that would be better seen as external modules?

I have got a working version of a remote file explorer plugin. For now, my current version duplicates a lot of things from the existing file explorer and adds a dependency to paramiko. Will clean it up and make a PR.

@-techtonik You can already check out the connection to a remote kernel in the PR20 on bitbucket.
