After checking with Ubuntu developers and CUPS maintainers, it appears that default home directory permissions when adding new users is 755, so this should work for default installations. If it doesn't, we'd like to hear more details.

In other cases, as long as group Others has Execute permissions over ${HOME}, it should be enough. Thus, 711 or 751 should work. However, since permissions other than 755 on ${HOME} are non-default, we cannot guarantee that we'll support that particular case.
