I don't think you need to go full filesystem abstraction, a la FUSE. I completely agree trying to do something like access a git repo on a FUSE FS which is actually remote is going to be painful.
But just having a standardized way to do directory listings, uploads, partial writes, auth, etc over HTTP would be useful to me.

It’s basically a shell component that abstracts over file selection for open/save and an api for providing the list of files, reading or writing files/parts of files, and shims around common fs operations like copy and move.
