Could one achieve the same with MacFusion (http://www.sccs.swarthmore.edu/users/08/mgorbach/MacFusionWeb/)?

Hi.

If you decide do give MacFusion a try you might want to use the latest beta, 2.0 beta 3 ( http://macfusionapp.org/trac ) since the official release, 1.2 beta3 doesn't seem to be working properly on the latest OS version.

Yes, MacFusion can be used. When adding a new connection to the list of favourites, set the server name or IP address to that of the intended target (not the gateway), set the authentication to Public Key from the drop down list, and then add just the " -o ssh_command=/usr/bin/gateway-ssh " part of the command line to the area labelled Extra Options (Advanced).

By the way, this and other methods of sshfs connection via a gateway server can be seen at this post from 2007:
