Looks like issue happens only with
intl.charset.default=UTF-8
When intl.charset.default=windows-1251 all works fine.
Severity: normal → minor

Could be related to https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=309343 somehow…

FYI.
Extension of FireFTP is available for the long-lived non-ascii pathname issue in FTP.
> http://fireftp.mozdev.org/
> http://fireftp.mozdev.org/help.html
Creator of FireFTP says as follows in his Help.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
What is Server Encoding?
Not all servers around the globe use the same characters when talking to FireFTP. There are Japanese, Russian, Chinese, and many more languages that have special characters in their languages. This setting defaults to UTF-8 (which *cough* the servers should use *cough*) but some server's are outdated (or not as hip) and use other encodings. So, if you're seeing strange characters on the remote side of FireFTP you can try messing around with this feature until you find the language that your server speaks.

Can "setting View/Character Encoding=windows-1252(while intl.charset.default NE windows-1252)" be another workaround of unexpected display issue of non-ascii FTP file name?

When non-ascii FTP file name is displayed as expected by the woraround, can the file of non-ascii name be accessed with no problem by link click/save as etc.?

Yes.
However, I've just checked the behavior with intl.charset.default=UTF-8 using standard complaint Filezilla version (UTF8 mode ON by default, http://forum.filezilla-project.org/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=3345) and problem almost disappeared.
I say "almost" because Firefox doesn't display non-ascii items in the *long* list (i.e. in directory with a lot of items (folders/files). I must do "Reload" and non-ascii items appears only after that.
Not sure how long a list should be to observe such behavior. In my case non-ascii items start from 270th position in the list (and they are not displayed at first attempt)

While ftp directory content is displayed, two kind of source can be viewed.
(A) View/Page Source => Response data from FTP server for NLST or LIST
(B) CTRL+A(Select All), Context menu/View Selection Source
=> HTML internally generated by Fx to display directory list
All files/directories are seen in (A) and (B) when first attempt?
Different from second atempt(non-scii file is listed as expected)?
