The summary for you and your tester for now IMHO is:
1. it is not a "bug" in docker.io
2. if thin-provisioning-tools are installed things work just fine
3. the bug was re-targeted against LVM2 to consider there if
  3a. lvm should reject to create thin pools if the tools are missing
  3b. lvm should have a harder dependency (component mismatch, so MIR needed)

I think for now we are waiting on feedback from lvm maintainers in Ubuntu and Debian.
