[SOLVED] Using turtles to place floppy disks in drives

I was thinking about the whole "skynet turtles" thing and I was wondering, is it possible to use turtles to insert floppy disks into drives? I've tried using turtle.place() with the disk selected but it returns false (most likely because it's in item and not a block) and there doesn't appear to be any command to do this.
Is there any way to do this or is it going to be implemented?

Thanks.

EDIT: I apologise if this has been asked before, or is in the wrong section.
