Yeah, thanks for the answers.
In that sense it is actually "Fixed" in Xenial and later.
The potential impact to SRU Trusty would be too high, and even less it would
fit under the ESM support that Trusty is in nowadays.
I'll be updating bug states accordingly.

And checking it shows:
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 19 Okt 12 2018 /etc/mtab -> ../proc/self/mounts
This is true at least back to Xenial (which I checked).
