When you connect to a remote host through location bar (or using connect to a server option) e.g. using sftp://user@host.com as expected your are put in your home directory of a remote host. 

The problem is - as there is no "Up" button, or any menu item which gives you a "Go to parent directory" function there is no intuitive way to get to servers / or any other directory outside of /home/user.

Of course, on a desktop computer I can always use alt+uparrow but what do you do if are using a touch device? Or am I missing somehing (which would be a problem in itself because there should be a straightforward solution)?

I know the question of "Up" button has been rehashed numerous times but this scenario seems a bit problematic.

Thanks!
