Description

Hello!

It would be very useful to have an option (perhaps a checkbox) on the site manager to override the use of the default local directory just before connecting.

FileZilla has a command line option (--local) to start in a specific local directory, which I implement on a Window's file explorer context menu item to open FileZilla from the current location, or a specified folder. But when I connect to a preconfigured site with a default local directory set then it changes. Changing to the default directory is usually the desired behavior, but not every time. When I open FileZilla from a different directory to upload files from that location I have to either disable the default local directory, or connect and manually open the new directory again, which seems inefficient for repeated use.

Thank you in advance..
