I have an update, and a working solution.

Hat tip to the example Tom Weaver has @ http://www.toms-blog.com/alienvault-lvm-partitioning/

Using Tom's example and some minor sizing modifications and adding a non-LVM /boot, here's an example that works with ubuntu 14.04 amd64

Attached is the Partitioning section and LVM custom recipe that will create /, /swap, /home, /usr, /var and /boot.
This was tested as part of a no-touch un-attended install on a small 8GB VM (qemu/kvm)

The partman LVM recipe parsing can be fragile and un-forgiving :-)
