I guess the place to start might be the OpenELEC forum, with a "feature request" type of post (I'm pretty sure the OE developers don't accept feature requests on github).
Adding a feature to the OpenELEC Settings add-on might make sense (basically, pick the drive and select the tar to be copied to the .update folder).
It's probably a fair amount of work - just a shame the File Manager can't be used (although it "sees" the attached drive, it's blind to tar files). Plus it doesn't give access to the .update folder.
Alternatively, perhaps @Leopold might be willing to add something to the Dev Update add-on?
