I honestly don't know if all the above are possible, but if they were, and the next N9xx had them, I'd never consider another phone again.
The first two are possible and already a reality for devices with USB OTG. Printing would require support from software and (I guess) printer drivers, so it isn't as easy as just plugging the device in.
