Sorry that it took so long to answer.

Yes, you could add command there. Actually kobo-grive-sync scripts add code to end of that file so in the end execution will jump to /usr/local/grive-sync/udev_usb_program.sh.

If so, is there any reason one shouldn't use the real sd-card and if there is None, how do I do that. (Coz than the sd-card would definitively be mounted on usb-connect)
Yes, if real SD card is inserted then files are synchronized to /mnt/onboard/.grive-sync/sd, but only real SD card content is visible in library.

If you could make files to synchronize to the real SD card then you would get what you wanted. /usr/local/grive-sync/config.sh contains variable "grive_sync_libfolder" that defines where files are synchronized. If the value is /mnt/sd then files are synchronized to real SD. The value was /mnt/sd earlier, but I changed it, because if scripts is executed when /mnt/sd is not mounted then some files get written to firmware partition of the internal SD. Here is the change I made.

Sorry, I don't know if google drive renames files. I know that dropbox is hard to get working in ARM processor. You can search open source synchronization software for linux and then compile it to kobo firmware. That's what I did to grive.
