There's some stuff to do this, yes. You can make it a (v4l2-)control,
and then let the button-press be detected by the application, which
handles this as if the "capture" button was pressed.

However, this isn't simply a kernel driver thing, it's also an
application thing. Stuff like this doesn't belong in the kernel as the
windows driver seems to do it, imho.
