We are not just talking about the US and the card has a metal enclosure. 
I have no real thermal problems with these types of designs and it's not 
much work at all. Ask me that question 40 years ago and I might have 
been stumped for a while on both of your issues. So it probably depends 
on who you are asking or how much experience you have.

Here a pic of a typical PCMCIA card. Millions have already been made.
