Hi, you should be able to customise these already, though it doesn't 
seem to be mentioned in the man page - use the "rcp" and "rsh" keywords 
work to specify an alternate sftp/scp command-line, i.e:

site foo
   protocol sftp
   rsh ssh -i bar
   rcp scp -i bar
   ...

if this doesn't work please let me know.
