Pypo,
I can feel your pain.
But just quit all the "automatic" apps before you mount the cards.
It has nothing to do with Bill's "FCPX is metadata driven" at all. All versions of FCP had been metadata driven but in another way.
FCPX stuff is based on SQL and Core Data where specs for latter one probably won't be published ever.
And to be honest, if I look at the XML features of FCPX, metadata are as poor as with an ancient EDL.
FCPX is a closed eco system with not a lot of options to make it work like you want.
