2) I can't find my external SD Card's position on the file system. I believe it is supposed to be in /media but there is nothing in that folder in my case. My card is formatted FAT32 so it should be mounted without a hitch. Perhaps the destination changed again, anyone with pointers?
1) Well, that's unfortunately the direction in which all major OS's are moving. The MTP protocol originates from Microsoft and has some flaws, but it is understandable, that Mass Storage causes problems. However, there is a way...

2) How big is the card? I have 32GB one, formatted to FAT32 and everything works fine (yes, it should show up in /media). Maybe try to reformat it?

EDIT: Didn't see MartinK's answer, so just to add here: I'm using sftp/fish as well and it's a very comfortable way of moving files.

EDIT2: It is indeed in /media/sdcard/<UUID>/, not /mount/sdcard/<UUID>/ in my case...
