Not only that, but for the benefit of the newbies around here, some type of steganographic (hiding the information) system should be included as well.   A photographer of controversial subjects would presumably love to be able to fill his SD card with hundreds of innocuous photographs, of tourist traps, flowers, trees, beaches, sunsets, or anything which would back up his chosen cover-story.  Apparently the ability to hold hidden files is already provided-for in SD cards, conveniently enough.
