SFTP remote directory should be determined using $HOME variable

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?

1. Open File Transfer session from a stored session (right click on server) 
using root as default username

2. Instead of using the value of $HOME variable to determine the initial remote 
directory, thus depending on the user, /home/<username> is used. 

Most of the times, home directory of root user is /root, so remote window shows 
no content and a message can be seen at the bottom of the window, indicating 
/home/root directory was not found. 

$HOME environment variable content should be used to make it dynamic. 


What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

Window on remote system should show content, but as directory does not exist, 
it remains empty. 

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?

Currently using 1.4.0.6 version. Same behavior was observed with version 1.4.0.5
