I've just tested with Etch and sftp, a home directory can certainly have the group write bit set.
Are you refering to the $HOME/.ssh directory? This should normally be 0600 or 0700 for very good reasons.

ssh_sftpd
ssh_sftpd(3erl) Erlang Module Definition ssh_sftpd(3erl)
NAME
ssh_sftpd - Specifies a channel process to handle a sftp subsystem.
DESCRIPTION
Specifies a channel process to handle a sftp subsystem.
COMMON DATA TYPES
subsystem_spec() = {subsystem_name(), {channel_callback(), channel_init_args()}}
subsystem_name() = "sftp"
channel_callback() = atom() - Name of the erlang module implementing the subsystem using the ssh_channel behavior see ssh_channel(3erl)
channel_init_args() = list() - The one given as argument to function subsystem_spec/1.
EXPORTS
subsystem_spec(Options) -> subsystem_spec()
Types Options = [{Option, Value}]
Should be used together with ssh:daemon/[1,2,3]
Options are:
{cwd, String} :
Sets the initial current working directory for the server.
{file_handler, CallbackModule} :
Determines which module to call for communicating with the file server. Default value is ssh_sftpd_file that uses the file and
filelib API:s to access the standard OTP file server. This option may be used to plug in the use of other file servers.
{max_files, Integer} :
The default value is 0 , which means that there is no upper limit. If supplied, the number of filenames returned to the sftp
client per READDIR request, is limited to at most the given value.
{root, String} :
Sets the sftp root directory. The user will then not be able to see any files above this root. If for instance the root is set
to /tmp the user will see this directory as / and if the user does cd /etc the user will end up in /tmp/etc .
