Can't the userland tools be packaged and somekind of install script for
the uvcvideo module be installed if the iSight is present?

Something like a install line somewhere in /etc/modprobe.d/uvcvideo:

install uvcvideo /sbin/modprobe --ignore-install uvcvideo && {
/usr/lib/udev/ift-load -f /lib/firmware/isight.fw -b 005 -d 003 ; }

Maybe a script to detect the various models available and in what bus
they are and check if the firmware is loaded (the device id also changes
when the firmware is loaded), and load it if needed...
