Per my understanding all important site parts are already downloaded automatically. Only parts that site admin set as optional are downloaded upon demand (you visit a sub-page with optional images/videos for example). But you can already seed/download all optional files (yours requested feature per my understanding) doing a few clicks: For that, vertically drag and drop the round button that is in the site corner to show site menu, scroll down and click "Help distribute added optional files" kind of switch.

well,i mean helping other peers to get totally unvisited sites in a way like DHT+cache. that if everybody's peer downloads files of p0rn & protesting zites,nobody will be identified acquiring it. (laugh). possible implementation : if the peer isn't getting the file for its owner, it will increase a value by one,(else reset it to zero),if the value is over a config-ed value,stop chaining the requirement.
