I'm not aware of any activity on this since Robert Ancell's comment #4 indicating that a proper fix might require extensive refactoring (too extensive for Ubuntu T?). As a workaround I've added an Upstart configuration file to run krenew in every user's session; it's as simple as

start on xsession
stop on desktop-end
respawn
exec /usr/bin/krenew -K 60

(One may need to add a -t flag if AFS token renewal is desired.)
Lightdm still refreshes the wrong ccache but krenew independently takes care of the right one.
