Yes, it probably should since default installs of Ubuntu have those suites
enabled. However, I'm not in favor of complicating lh config with a set of
options for this like those that exist for Debian's security/volatile.

I saw on the wiki [1] that there are plans to "rethink sources.list and
sources.list.d handling". I think we should solve this as a part of that
effort instead of just hacking on this feature since there is already a very
easy work around/solution available. If this is the appropriate place to
discuss I'm happy to reply with some ideas, otherwise I'll chat with you on
IRC.
