Current firefox has "soft disabled" the FTP feature, I believe there is 
an about:config setting somewhere to override that, but given that it 
will be "hard disabled" in V90, so I thought I'd take the leap now 
rather than later.

After upgrading to V88, the first click of an FTP URL will bring up a 
dialogue just like for any other unrecognised MIME type or protocol, 
Filezilla could be picked from the list ...

WinSCP was not on the list, so presumably has not registered itself with 
windows as an FTP handler, and when I tried pointing direct to the 
winscp.exe, it did launch it, but winscp insisted on trying to 
authenticate to the FTP site, which then complained saying it was for 
anonymous access only.
