You will have to modify the loader to do a couple things:

1) allow you to grab a gset or gstate during the object's load. You must
sense the object is being loaded (either via name or via entries in the
attributes of the model).

2) You must make sure the builder does not add it to other gsets. You can do
this by adding additional sorting during the load. It sorts for material,
binding, backface, zbuffer,... Add another parameter in for your new property.
 The sort will not combine your desired gsets with other gsets.

If you have any specific questions, email me.
