[Sugar-devel] [sugar PATCH] sl#3605: Do not rely on 'mountpoint' property being present in the metadata per entry. Instead use the global API.

Please note, that the global API ("get_mount_point()" and "set_mount_point()") were
introduced as a part of batch-operations feature, for which the patch is located at ::
http://patchwork.sugarlabs.org/patch/1205/

Also, since the bug has been diagnosed on sugar-mainline master (on which the batch-operations
patch has not been pushed, yet ;-) ), so this (ticket sl#3605) does not seem to be a 
regression; it seems to be genuinely present right from the start.
