How do copy an email attachment from O365 Group email to O365 Groups Files?

Does anyone know if there is an easy way to save the attachment from an email in a O365 Groups mailbox to the O365 Groups Files repository?  It seem like the only way to accomplish this is to save it...

    We're currently working on allowing saving a document received to the current group's files. We're also looking to expand this concept to saving a document received in the inbox or in any group to any group the user is a member of.

     

    Thank you,

The easy way to do this is to synchronize the document library to the PC using the OneDrive for Business (old) sync client. You can then "save as" an email attachment to the local copy of the document library and the OneDrive for Business sync client will synchronize the attachment back to the group document library. Quick. Simple. Easy.

Nice workaround but not a solution.

 

SharePoint libraries and Group libraries should be directly available from within Office Apps.

That would be great and efficient integration and collaboration.
