You can already do that.

Routing is in the works (see https://github.com/openstreetmap/openstreetmap-website/issue...). For now you can use http://map.project-osrm.org/ but having it in plain sight on osm.org will definitely be better

Edits are stored localy on your phone/tablet, and sent to osm (along with GPS traces you could have recorded) when you manually hit "send data" while a connection is available
