Don't know if this will help all that much but I set up a CVS project in
KDevelop using sourceforge.net and can update/commit through KDevelop
using ssh so I guess it could be adapted to ftp

Make sure you set CVSROOT environment variable to the name of you server and as
I was using ssh I also set CVS_RSH=path-to-ssh

use cvs to do all the dirty work so if you can use CVS you should be able to
intregrate it into KDevelop.

Hope this helps
