[Owncloud] SFTP to a user's ownCloud files?

[Jon Spriggs]

If you've got some combination of Chroot, an FUSE (file system in
Userspace) module for Webdav and an automounter... then you might be
able to do this without too many issues!

I should note, I've *not* done this.

Look at ProFTPd which does have an SFTP module, and I saw a howto for
making Samba over SFTP while I was considering this last night.

All the best,
