Remote Folder name in Explorer: How to change?

Hi,

First off, Great extension. Just moved over to VScode, and this plugin is a must for my workflow.

One thing I’m having trouble with is I have a workspace with multiple remote server folders. The name for any remote folder as listed under Explorer uses <username> (Remote). Since my username is the same across servers, all my remote folders have the same name. It would be nice if there were a <description> parameter in the remote server config which could uniquely identify the remote server. Perhaps fail back to either the label defined in User Settings for the remote server or even the hostname parameter.

Cheers, tzcole

Just for clarity: you can set the name dynamically with this rootLabel

"remotefs.rootLabel": "${name} — (Remote)",

SSH FS does not work with ftp.

I tried adding this to my VSCode settings.json:

"remotefs.remote": {
	"10.0.1.116": {
		"name": "1.116",
		"scheme": "sftp",
		"host": "10.0.1.116",
		"username": "root",
		"rootPath": "/usr/local/telco-data/slaview/customfilesOp/scripts"
	},
	"10.0.1.117": {
		"name": "1.117",
		"scheme": "sftp",
		"host": "10.0.1.117",
		"username": "root",
		"rootPath": "/usr/local/telco-data/slaview/customfilesOp/scripts"
	},
},
"remotefs.rootLabel": "${name} — (Remote)",

But it still shows this after reloading:

You need to remove existing folders from workspace and re-add them (ctrl+shift+p)
