Just brainstorming:

What you can do is (mis)use the auth_varname wfsconf attribute: In
digitizing, this is used to store the user id in the wfs. Instead of
userid, you could add another expression, which is evaluated by php.

Another thing you could do (on trunk) is create a new module which
registers a function with the openDialog event. You could check whether
the wfs conf of the current geometry matches the telephone booth wfsconf
(configured via element var), and then set the attribute of the geometry.

If you need more details, let me know.

Have a ncie weekend
