I am reluctant to add anything like the above even though
it is quite popular (usually people use plugdev group or
things like that).
Just take a look at the default udev rules
whch is /lib/udev/rules.d/50-udev-default.rules, there is
already provision for libusb device.
# 'libusb' device nodes
SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ENV{DEVTYPE}=="usb_device", MODE="0664"
SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ENV{DEVTYPE}=="usb_device", IMPORT{builtin}="usb_id"
It seems to me that udev developers thought about the group based
method and decided against it.
