You /can/ open and use files this way. For example if I need to make 
quick changes to a text file on a remote server I will open it up in 
gEdit, make the changes and save.

Here is a link to what I am talking about. Note everything is remote 
over SSH but acts as if its local via gvfs - http://i.imgur.com/AwnmOB2.jpg
