automatically open content on client

Is there a way for users to seamlessly edit content stored as chatter items without going through the "download/edit/upload" steps manually? 

 

For example, if a MS Word document is attached to a custom object's feed, is it possible that, with a single button click, the document is downloaded to the client (without prompting the user "where") and then immediately opened using the MS Word installed on the client?   If this is possible, I would like to provide features in MS Word to post the new version of the document back to SF. 

 

In essence, the user should be able to edit and save the document without worrying about where on their local drive it is stored as long as the session is still active.

 

If such a thing is possible, any guidance would be much appreciated.
