Yes I am trying to provoke them, I want them to be involved here.. they cannot say I am not trying to get them to be a part of this, they HAVE the chance to step in an do something for us. An once more.. I am not trying to edit or mod the files, I just want to copy/backup/move or share them. All fair play by my count.
Honestly, they probably don't want people to do this or it would already be a feature. I'm 100% behind you that it should be a thing, but posting here with the hope that the devs will change it is mostly a pipe dream.
