This feature is not supported in WP8.1.

Its definitely a much wanted feature by many users so hope MS adds it someday in the upcoming releases for WP.

To clarify, it's not allowed on purpose, for security reasons. Windows Phone is trying to become an enterprise phone, and security is paramount in that effort, if a user can side load apps or connect devices that might contain malware, this would prevent adoption in the enterprise.
