Bug description:
The camera and the gallery app today are authorized to read/write in /home/$USER/Pictures and /home/$USER/Videos.
Now they also need to be able to read/write in the similar directories of the SD card, for example:
- /media/phablet/064a-7494/Pictures
- /media/phablet/064a-7494/Videos
As a side note, we are using the following API in applications to retrieve the path (e.g. /home/phablet/Pictures):
http://qt-project.org/doc/qt-5/qstandardpaths.html#writableLocation
To retrieve the similar path on the SD card we are considering using a
combination of that to guess the directory name (Pictures)
concatenated with the value of http://doc-snapshot.qt-
project.org/qt5-5.4/qstorageinfo.html#rootPath
