You could try doing a fine grayscale halftone pattern (it does have texture) on a different layer and then paint in the mask channel to control its intensity. I can't say I've done it before, but that seems like an approach that seems reasonable. Note that you can blur and smudge away on the mask channel, and your texture revealed by it should stay as clear/consistent as ever.

There's always more than one way to skin a cat when it comes to PhotoShop. Maybe somebody else will stop by and come up with a better approach?
