For those users, getting back to the old way would be a chmod away and I asked Serge to make sure permissions would only be changed once and not with every update, so it should be a one time thing.
As for security, while we don't currently say LXC is secure on Ubuntu, we're not aware of any way to escape a default container (Ubuntu on Ubuntu) starting with 12.04 when running with all default settings (specifically, under apparmor). If you know of a way to do so, I'd love to hear about it so we can adapt our apparmor profile to prevent it.
