Hi there @postmasterClam,
Unfortunately, as far as I know, this isn’t something that can be done still.
It looks like someone has had the same idea before and has posted it on our Product Ideas board. The best thing to do would be to head over and add your vote to it, as well as adding any additional information in the comments for exactly what you’d like to see implemented!

In the meantime what you could do is to download a backup of your files, you will need to use scp or similar for now.
Hope that helps! - Bobby.
