> In the software I am writing, I need to execute commands when the filesystems "allows" it, i.e. local or via ssh (i.e. sftp filesystem). 
> For a local filesystem, I can easily do this, but for Sftp, there is no way to get a channel different than the SFTP on, so it would be great if other channels could be open.
> I could submit a patch that would:
> 1) Allows a call to session.openChannel(String type) [following getChannel()]
> 2) Overwrite isReleaseable to keep the filesystem open if some external channels are open
