You have been subscribed to a public bug:
If you connect to a remote SFTP folder, the UID and GID is interpreted
using the local users and groups database. This makes the "Create
Folder" and "Create Document" options to be greyed out.
I'm aware of bugs like 229270 and 9252, but I am reporting this as a
separate issue because it is not the same to display ownerships than to
prevent the user from doing working.
If SFTP permissions are known to be misinterpreted, just don't make the
Create Folder / Create Document / Paste menu items availability depend
on those while the bug is being fixed.
I'm sure I do have correct permissions: if I log in to the SSH server
and cd to the path, creating the folder through the shell works.
