In koreader/frontend/apps/filemanager you can find filemanagerhistory.lua. On line 61:
Code:
local history_dir = "./history/"
You could manually edit the file to point to wherever, or use the startup script to check whether there is another history directory with newer files and than use sed to edit the line before starting koreader and reverse it to normal after.

I think you could also write the whole thing at that point in the script.

Your main problem is probably motivation as your sdcard is only a little more mobile than your reader. With the chance of small things getting lost it is probably even less effectively mobile for reading.
