FTP client that uses drag and drop instead of double pane?

I've tried leachFTP and filezilla and looked at smartFTP and CuteFTP.

What I really want out of an FTP client is a minimal single pane view of
the remote directory that lets me drag/drop files to and from explorer.

I would really love it to allow selection of bookmarks via command line so
I can set up some direct shortcuts.

Anything come close?
 
I think you can turn of local folders in SmartFTP & Filezilla and both
support drag & drop. As for direct shortcuts, you need to create normal ftp
shortcuts and set you client to open them.

filezilla comes close, the local pane can't really be turned off, but small
enough to be out of the way. I couldn't find any way to turn on support for
drag and drop to explorer, from explorer works though. I'm not exactly sure
why they'd have support one way and not the other.

Smartftp just doesn't work. Probably a win98 thing. a lot of stuff no
longer works on win98.

I use a little program called SendToFTP. It places an icon in the SendTo
folder. Right-click the file or files to send, select "SendToFTP" and there
they go! What could be quicker or easier? This little applet can really
spoil you.
