Reading one of many articles about a leaked build 10558, one of the features in the new build is to allow apps to be installed in the sd card. Tablet/PC with small internal storage capacity will have a sigh of relief.
Is only applicable to Insider Preview build 10558 for now, but hopefully it will become a reality to the final release.

Perhaps one of the major changes in this build is that Microsoft is enabling the option to install apps on an external storage in the Storage settings section. This option has been in the works a for a long time. We were expecting to see this feature with the release of Windows 10 back on July 29, but the company felt that it wasn't ready for everyone to use due to performance issues. You could see the option in the Settings app, but there wasn't a way to enable it. However, things are now changing, and starting build 10558, users can choose to install apps on an external storage.

This is a welcome feature. Users with tablets or laptops with limited storage space will be able to insert an SD card (when supported) and use the new storage not only to start data but as a way to get access to more apps as well.
