One of the worst things of Android IMHO is how applications pollute your sd card making it almost impossible to find something. It's like in the first days of Windows.

I've asked this before but still haven't found any answer:

I'd like to use a vfat partition in my micro sd as the sdcard for Nitdroid so my folder MyDocs wouldn't be polluted when installing Android applications.

Does anyone knows how to do it? Nitdroid doesn't seem to have an /etc/mtab to manually edit mountings, and manually symlinking /sdcard to new location doesn't work because the MyDocs vfat is still mounted as /mnt/sdcard.

Could you please direct me to a place with information about how Android manages partition mounting?.
