Gizzly: You don't need a daily PPA, I agree that is a little unsafe. However, there's an easier solution, since it looks like Ubuntu failed to get this critical update included. You can use prevu to easily build the package from Debian/testing:

prevu http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian/pool/main/b/btrfs-tools/btrfs-tools_0.19+20120328-1.dsc

That should do the trick for you to get a useful, recent package built and available in apt. Honestly, the package builds so easily and works without problems, it's really baffling why 12.04 doesn't include something recent.
