1. As far as I understand this is a patch for a template used to create a

Yes, the configuration of existing servers will have to be updated
manually.

Since there is 'systemd-detect-virt', would it be possible for the systemd preinst to check for a LXC system and then to prompt the user with something like this? :

"We have detected that this is a LXC VM. When switching from sysvinit to
 systemd as is happening at this very moment, you need to make sure your
 VM is poperly configured. Otherwise it will fail to boot. Please read:

   http://wiki.debian.org/LXC/switching_to_systemd

 If this LXC VM is configured properly, then please choose PROCEED to
 continue installation. Otherwise choose ABORT and installation of systemd
 will be stopped and you can configure your VM or you can switch back to
 sysv.

 [ABORT] [PROCEED]"

Alternatively:

Marco d'Itri mentioned a "correctly configured VM", maybe we'll get some
additional input from him, on what's required in the wheezy to jessie
upgrade case.
What I meant is the list of changes in the patch.

Theoreticall all that is required and that is present in the patch could be done automatically during systemd installation. What do you think about that?

Greets,
