--- Comment #1 from Darren Tucker <dtucker at zip.com.au> ---
There's not really such a thing as "an sftp login".  There's only
"logins" (or more correctly, authentications), after which zero or more
sessions may be established, zero or more of which may ask for the sftp
subsystem.  

For normal logins, "last logged in at" messages are collected from
either PAM or from within sshd itself then sent to the user at the
start of their shell session.  For sftp sessions, there is no shell
session.  Potentially you could send the message back in a ssh protocol
banner message (which sshd does in the case of a denial by the PAM
account stack) but that change would affect all sessions, not just the
sftp ones.
