I frankly didn't feel like testing this again with every new Ubuntu release like I did in the first years (!) after I first posted this bug without any evidence about upstream changes that might have actually solved this issue. However, the upstream bug report linked from this one suggests that kernel 3.12 and later might contain an actual fix for this bug -- that would include Ubuntu 14.04 LTS "Trusty" which is going to include 3.13 (or even 3.14). If someone else affected by this bug and subscribed to this bug report could test it under Trusty because they're already running the development version/Beta, please report here if it's fixed there. (Otherwise, I'm going to upgrade to Trusty shortly after its release and report here if it works for me then.)

Testing with an SD card (no alternative media available), the reader is only listed by lspci if the SD card is present in the reader at boot time. Boot time dmesg attached. Now if an SD card was present at boot time, I can remove the SD, and dmesg will report [ 164.613053] mmc0: card db81 removed If I reinsert it, dmesg will say [ 179.271670] mmc0: new SD card at address db81 [ 179.276522] mmcblk0: mmc0:db81 SD512 500224KiB [ 179.276522] mmcblk0: p1 and gnome will display an SD drive icon on my desktop and ask if any files should be imported. But nothing of all that happens if the SD card was not already in the card reader at boot time!
