I see.  I should have explained better:
No, you can't ftp the results of FSDump and keep the properties.
It's intended for use with FilesystemDirectoryView.

There is no way to do what you're describing with FTP.

We do most of our development on the filesystem and use
FilesystemDirectoryViews to get zope to use the data.
We used FSDump as a one-time convenience for copying scripts that
were initially developed in Zope back to the filesystem with
properties intact.
