"guvcview -o" provides a control panel for web cameras and has ability to save and load settings. A suitable location for entry could also be System - Preferences.

Some work for it would still be required:
- ability to select device from the UI (if multiple cameras has been connected)
- ability to silently and automatically load predefined configuration for a camera during login/system startup.
- only works with UVC cameras, support for cameras with random data interfaces would be much harder to implement
