There is a SSH/SCP/SFTP FUSE driver around, so you can mount filesystems over SCP/SFTP. That should take care of Linux and Mac boxes. Not sure what the equivalent Windows solution would be.
It works, as long as you're willing to forego adherence to POSIX file system standards.
I assume you're referring to SFTP's (and thus sshfs's) lack of support for locking. While annoying, IMO it's no worse than the locking issues I've run into with NFSv3 and Samba3, and I vaguely remember AFS has "advisory" locks (meaning it doesn't stop you). Are there other places where SFTP doesn't comply with SUS 2008?
