Hi,

»xdg-open ssh://host/path/to/file« is working very well for me on my
Arch Linux without any need for wrappers. But if you want to be a little
bit more purist, use first »gvfs-mount ssh://host/path/to/file« and than
»gvfs-open ssh://host/path/to/file«, because exo-open (called by
xdg-open if this script detects Xfce) is basically falling back to gvfs
(first mounting, than opening) if available.
