I just replaced Flash FXP with FireFTP for the ease of being able to do all my shit inside of Firefox, someone told me it was free, lightweight and easy and my Flash FXP trial had run out. But my problem is, for the life of me I can't figure out how to queue/pause files. It will be really freakin annoying if I can't set up a queue from different folders, once you click download the download starts and you can't then access other folders on a server to go and add something to the queue from elsewhere. Also there is no pause button so if you want to break from the downloads and play some online games you can't pause and come back to it, you've got to exit out and then reconnect to the server, restart the download to resume.

Are these features possible or should I look elsewhere for an FTP client?

now is the winter of our discontent

~~yeah i dont think you can queue stuff in FireFTP. FireFTP is a simple client used for simple/quick things. Use FlashFXP or a better FTP client for those features. No reason you can't have both!~~

actually dude theres a "queue" tab on the bottom...

edit: supposedly there is a pause button according to the patch notes for version 0.9.0 (http://fireftp.mozdev.org/developers.html) dunno if its still there

I had this same confusion when I started using FireFTP. Press abort or right click on the queued item and select cancel. Whatever you have uploaded will stay there and you just have to start the transfer again. From there it'll ask you to overwrite/skip/resume.
