It's as good as any, no?

Let me test whether camera objects can actually be mounted on players.
edit: Cameras don't mount properly to players.

Make the players respawn as a mount-only player type upon final death, then.

That's just a hacky mess. I'm trying to keep the mod as clean as possible. (and clean up the existing messes)
Send PMs to Badspot asking for 1st person spectating support and hopefully he will add it.
