Bug Description

A frequently asked question on askubuntu is how to transfer data from a Nexus7 running Ubuntu to another PC.

http://askubuntu.com/questions/216246/ubuntu-nexus-7-as-usb-device-does-not-work
http://askubuntu.com/questions/240610/how-to-transfer-files-between-my-nexus-7-and-my-pc-using-a-usb-cable/245704#245704

If there isn't any solution at the moment this is request to support MTP or PTP on ubuntu-nexus7,
and is probably something for the wishlist.

Expected behavior:
- connect Ubuntu-Nexus7 via USB to a PC
- PC should recognize the Ubuntu-Nexus7 as mountable Device (USB-Drive)
- probably showing the home folder or public folder of the current user-session on the Ubuntu-Nexus7
