Launch putty when using the winscp plugin

One of my favourite features in AS is the ability to bring up a console in whatever directory I'm in by simply hitting the "/" key on the numpad. I know in the standalone version of the WinSCP program you can hit a button that calls PuTTY (a free SSH client) which then opens an SSH session on the same host you're connected to.

Would it be possible to put similar functionality into the WinSCP plugin of AS? That is you're in a WinSCP-enabled panel and you hit the "/" key. Instead of launching a regular command prompt in the windows directory, up pops an instance of PuTTY that then launches an SSH session to whatever hostname that the SCP session is connected to.

Does that make sense?

Yes, it does make sense. Thank you for the idea!
