Could your branding process be improved to also modify the -app.xml file that's inside the IPA? Then you could use the suggested approach.

Our branding process takes the IPA, unzips it, changes the bundle_id in Info.plist, changes app name, and lots of other stuff. Then it zips back up and signs with certs and publishes to iTunes Connect. Reading app descriptor is reading the original bundle_id from compile time. Thanks though.
