Just ran into this issue again today when testing the LXD backport.

This is pretty annoying as it's causing a completely different user experience for cloud users compared to regular distro users.

Also, at least in trusty, apt-add-repository doesn't know how to add backports, so a user will need to manually update /etc/apt/sources.list and then run apt-get update which makes installing backports significantly harder than it should be.
