Thanks for looking for the upstream bug.

hal already shows a PTP node for the camera, and since hal does not actually
"do" anything, it can't be forced to anything. However, I can't find a gthumb
command line option for forcing PTP mode, how did you do that? If there was a
switch, I could modify gnome-volume-manager-gthumb to use it if a PTP node is
present.
