I'd like to see the "Transmit:" options from the FTP uploader (Original Photos vs. Saved as JPEG w/ options) be stored as part of the FTP Connection profile.

This would allow the configuration of those options to be specific to each FTP server, useful when different clients have different requirements.

For example, client 1 wants the original photos with WAV files while client 2 wants them resized to be a maximum of 4,000 pixels converted to SRGB.

This would help prevent mistakes for photographers who work for multiple clients when bouncing between assignments.

I just made two snapshots with two different saved FTP connections and different image processing settings and loading the snapshot seemed to do exactly what you are looking for. Can you let us know how snapshots aren't serving this need?

Ha, that is so obvious once you said it Andrew! I use snapshots in all the other PM dialogs but was just so fixated on the Connection dropdown at the top I didn't even consider snapshots in this dialog.

Now if only we could get a "local" Metadata Template for the File Uploader that also was saved as part of those snapshots I'd be set!
