I think the issue would mainly arise if you are a commercial
photographer - ie someone who makes a living via photography, for
example, by publishing wilderness calendars.
I have yet to came a ranger who would give a photographer grief in a
Nat Park unless they were doing some thing verboten - like being in a
prohibited area. I think you are more likely to have problems after
something is published than when taking a photograph.

It would be a little (to say the least) embarrassing and annoying to
be innocently pursuing my very
amateur photographic hobby in what I feel is a public place to
suddenly find myself confronted by a
NP officer (only doing what they are required to do) demanding
evidence of my permit or,
alternatively, confiscating my equipment!
Questions:
1/ Does anyone on this forum know the facts about these permits?
2/ Has anyone had any experiences connected with these permits?
