(Sidenote: The sshfs method does of course not use the USB protocol. It uses ssh.) iFuse is built on top of libiphone. I would guess that some glue code between libiphone and libgpod, and some HAL signalling, would eliminate the need for a fuse mount - and then perhaps amarok-2.x will be usable for our needs. Until then, we'll have to keep going with 1.4. Luckily it has been picked up by epel.
