Thanks, this does indeed the trick. Fascinating ... ;-)
What I had tried already without effect was the variant sftp://user@host/.

Now I could verify that my assumption about url-encoding the
#-character was correct.
sftp://host/ga%23.txt creates the filename ga#.txt on the server side while
sftp://host/ga#.txt creates just ga as the OP reported.
Looks like the #-part of the URL gets a special treatment somewhere in
the sftp pipeline.
