Drag and drop across the network can be done with ssh as well, if you use 
konqueror (don't know about this newfangled thing called dolphin). Just 
enter "fish://user@server" in the address bar for the remote side. You 
will be asked for the password of the remote account once. Then you can 
navigate to the desired directory on the remote server and drag and drop 
files between local and remote machine as usual. However, it is slower 
than NFS due to the ssh encryption.
