I'm not sure what you mean by this, but:
USER <SCRIPT>alert("hi")</SCRIPT>
331 Password required for <SCRIPT>alert("hi")</SCRIPT>.
You can pretty easily get arbitrary text sent back to the browser
(with other protocols too, I'm sure), so you could pass back
JavaScript that would go and interpret the text of the returned
document, causing your victim's web browser to suddenly become quite
intelligent and useful for future connections..
I can see it now..
1) Victim behind a firewall visits a webpage.
2) Victim's browser connects to an internal anonymous FTP server
3) Victim's browser walks the directory tree, downloads files,
and dumps their contents back to the original webpage.
Whee.
