A 'new' ftp client is arriving soon for Linux. FileZilla is currently being ported over to Linux from Windows (using wxWidgets) and will arrive in the form of FileZilla 3. At present it is in alpha stage but nightly builds are available to download from the FileZilla development site.

Screenshots can be seen here with a short preview.

Easier?

Probably just because it's easier to use wxWidgets. AFAIK using wxWidgets means you'll have to change a lot less code in your sources, if you just want to port a windows app to Linux. But using f.ex. GTK would mean you would have to code pretty much everything from scratch.
