1. can you provide a proper command line that illustrates a problem? along the lines of 'duplicity /local/path rsync://'

2. this would be a simple bug, but no security issue. actually what you describe is legally possible with duplicity by using the parameter --rsync-options.

if you can come up w/ an attack where the filenames on the backend were maliciously modified in a way that exploits a locally run duplicity, than you'd have me convinced instantly.
