or is the question itself wrong in some way?
Consider the scenario where a photon goes through a double slit. A photon has mass, and things with mass interact through the gravitational field.
So even after the photon passes through the double slit, there is going to be some interaction with other things possessing mass. The task is to quantitatively describe that interaction.
Whether you call that quantization of gravity or not, the resulting theory is going to have to handle the quantum nature of photons.
Of course, the problem we have at the moment is that we cannot perform the required measurements to provide input to the theoreticians, nor test any theories they may devise.
