The "new" Sailfish OS path to the SD card is also similar how Fedora mounts SD cards:

Sailfish OS:
/run/media/nemo/<sdcard partition label>

Fedora:
/run/media/<username>/<sdcard partition label>

My guess would be this is harmonization work for upcoming storage changes/improvements likely needed for implementing user/system data encryption.

Careful watchers of the full Sailfish OS changelogs & Mer project git activity might have already noticed various related packages recently finding their way in, such as cryptsetup, udisks2 or libblockdev.
