Yep, everything is a file. Network connects - files too. :)
For example:
$ cat ~/secret/path/to/my-one-of-many-many-server.mcvfs-ftp
host: xxx.xxx.xx
port: 12345
user: xxxx
passwd: xxxx
passv: 1
...

By pressing 'Enter' to the *.mcvfs-ftp file (via mc.ext) ftp session
will establish... Is this bad think?
