It doesn't even have to be a full system where you can see every file on the device. Just make a file area called "My Files" or something like that and allow users to make files there for their documents, pictures etc., and allow all apps to be able to access that folder so I can easily open a pdf from my documents folder area in any pdf reader apps etc.
But if they don't add it, then I'll just wait for another type of tablet (Android maybe) that adds that and comes close to matching the form factor, responsiveness, battery life etc.

that is exactly what they have done... on iPad
in fact for photos thats exactly how it has always been once apps first came to the original iPhone, all of the photo manipulation apps can open photos from the camera role and save edits or newly created pictures into it as could teh drawing apps!
