USB mass storage

A very handy feature would it be, if one could upload files via USB into the filesystem on the ESP.
In case to produce a couple of mostly identical ESP-devices, one could make a series production: Flashing the interpreter and uploading all needed files, without need to do it via WLAN.
I have to test my programs with a smartphone. But I don't like to write the programs there. It's much more easy, to write them on the PC. Unfortunately it is a big deal for me, to get them on the ESP, because (for good reasons) I don't want to use WLAN/WIFI on my PC.
My winded way is, to copy the files from the PC to a storage with MicroUSB, to get them into the Smartphone, so that I can transfer them via WIFI onto the ESP ...
It is paradox: The ESP hangs on the USB-cable, for flashing it, but there seems not to exist a way to upload files on it!
Could you please implement such a feature, Mmiscool?
