Add another item by multivalued fields directly from node (or entity) view page

I have a file field which can have unlimited number of values. I am using File Entity module. As default, if users want to add more files, they must edit the node.

I’m looking for a solution to give the user the possibility to add another file directly from the node page where the files are displayed/listed. Just like the edit/delete functions from file entity, which the user can edit or delete an existing file directly from the node display using the contextual links hovering the file.

Is there any setting, API function or any hook that I can implement to provide this feature? Any advice will be very helpful.

UPDATE:

I don’t want editable fields (Edit or Editable Fields as suggested as an answer. They may provide this functionality, but their main purpose is making fields editable, which is much more than I need and I already have the editing and deleting features through the File Entity module, and I only need this functionality for file fields.

I hope I was clear enough, otherwise I could expand my question and provide some screenshots.
