I have done & recommended this kind of thing myself in the past, but 
nowadays I just make the default remote directory be something with path 
naming - / works, /home/vern would do it, too - maybe even 
/qsys.lib/qgpl.lib

This uses a "trick" - I tend not to trust tricks, but oh, well! The 
trick is, if the first CD you run is to a path, it changes to NAMEFMT 1.

I must have our FTP server set up with LISTFMT 1, cuz I don't run into 
trouble with that.

Default remote directory is in the second tab of the setup as you describe.
