You know, there is a simple reason I don't see Apple putting those ports back into their machines: it would be a completely different logic board.
Right now Apple basically has the same board that is shaped differently for the various machines. This means simplicity and ease of repair/swapout. If they added more ports it would be custom. It would add additional controller chips etc.
Plus, Apple would rather you have a dongle and more battery life than be able to put an SD card into the side of your machine and lose 30 minutes of battery life. Especially when you only use an SD card in your machine maybe .0001% of the time you are using the MBP.
