Likely, it is a feature. So I don't know whether we can fix this quickly.

However, if you want to investigate it, it is likely in
ange-ftp.el. Tramp doesn't care about ftp connections, it let
ange-ftp.el do the job.

A possible fix might be to give a user an option, whether global
dired-listing-switches shall be used everywhere, or whether there shall
be special settings connection-oriented.
