One advantage of sftp is that you don't need passwords. You can give the user 
the public key, and use the authorized hosts file for control.

This URL points to the solution to run chroot sftp: http://goo.gl/KuKl

Linux sftp, Win putty, and Mac (sftp?) work with keys. I think this is probably 
the safest way to go, dropping the user chroot into public_html.
