We need official clarification on *exactly* what this feature is doing, and point out what is true and not true among the observations posted by users so far.

The opening dialog rather insistently warns:
Warning
This operation will move all of your content (library, downloaded files, documents, pictures, etc.) from internal storage to the SD card. This operation is permanent and can not be undone.
Prior to proceeding, please:
Save all current work.
Be certain you are connected to AC power or that your battery has at least 25% charge.
Please note that the software update process will result in a reboot of your device and take several minutes to complete.
Proceed?
That's certainly enough to discourage the casual passerby. The text says everything, not just the Library, is transferred.
I started the procedure and after a LONG while it determined I had sufficient space on the SD card, but then warned that it was better to use an empty card. So, I decided to abort it rather than risk messing up something. When I'm ready to try again I'll backup the SD card on another computer, and then restore it after I see what happened to the card.
Undoing it? The dialog says it cannot be undone, but Never Say Never where a computer is concerned. It probably means root access is required to change things (or yet another utility to transfer back to internal memory.)
