Cannot browse files without without net-fs/sshfs its an important feature. Must add as unconditional dependency because it is supports core feature.
kdeconnect postinst message: * * Optional dependency: * net-fs/sshfs (for 'remote filesystem browser' plugin) * * The Android .apk file is available via * https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.kde.kdeconnect_tp * or via * https://f-droid.org/repository/browse/?fdid=org.kde.kdeconnect_tp *
At least add a use flag for it.
Until portage starts to support optional runtime deps we can only add it unconditionally. No real objections from me, but some users might.

I am annoyed because this now unconditionally pulls in net-fs/sshfs, which in turn pulls in sys-fs/fuse, which my kernel does not support (intentionally), so I have no use for it. Browsing files on my phone from my computer is not a feature of KDE Connect that I've ever used or cared about, and the other features of KDE Connect work fine without sshfs. I worked around this new (non)requirement by adding net-fs/sshfs-0 to /etc/portage/profile/package.provided. It's not a pretty workaround. I would prefer a USE="fuse" flag.
