I have not handled such scenario but I would take a closer 
look at that functionality; like these files of libgphoto2 (EL6)

/usr/lib64/libgphoto2/2.4.7/ptp2.so
/usr/lib64/libgphoto2_port/0.8.0/ptpip.so
/usr/lib64/udev/check-ptp-camera

/usr/lib64/udev/check-mtp-device
/usr/lib64/udev/check-ptp-camera
/lib/udev/rules.d/40-libgphoto2.rules

the former ones looks like "plugins" for libgphoto2
the latter ones seems to control such functionality

your solution should be repackaged or enforced on 
every libgphoto2 update ...
