Others have also mentioned fully-userspace solutions, i.e. giving your apps URLs instead of file names. Emacs has been given as an example, but it's not the only editor to support this. Most KDE and GNOME apps support sftp:// URLs (sftp ioslave in KDE, sftp gnome-vfs plugin in GNOME). Kate can work just fine with sftp:// URLs, for example.
