That's looks _very_ strange for my.
Squid always (as I know it, from 1.x version) supports ftp proxying.
And I always used this feature without any trouble...
Yes, this can't help with, say, standard windoze ftp client that is unable
to use _any_ proxy except of transparent "port forward" only one.
But squid is ok for almost any modern ftp clients, such as built-in to browsers,
and many, many others (cuteftp etc). And yes, it enforces usual restrictions
etc, with optional redirecting and cache control etc etc that are available for
http protocol.
Maybe I miss something?!
