Allow converting vertex groups to vertex paint

It would be very useful to create quick masks by selecting needed vertexes and then converting them to a vertex paint. Currently, I don't know a way to do such operation, so I think it would be a very useful feature.

For example, select corners of your model -> convert to vertex paint -> apply rust texture to that area.

This would be relatively easy to do with an add-on. In fact, I thought I'd seen such an add-on in the past. I just can't remember who wrote it.

@Jason van Gumster: There is an addon, but given how often that can be needed vs how relatively simple of a function it is, it doesn't make sense not to implement it in a proper compiled function that'd be order of magnitude faster.
