There are security updates on wheezy-backports, but I assume that you mean that: if 1) we do not add wheezy-backports to /etc/apt/sources.list and 2) if there is a security update, then it will be less straightforward for our users to benefit from it. One solution would be to add wheezy-backports to /etc/apt/sources.list. By default, it will never cause the installation of backports on the system unless the administrator specifically requests it. Because wheezy-backports are configured with "ButAutomaticUpgrades: yes", security updates for the backported cloud-init will come the same way as security updates for packages in Wheezy. Apart from the goal of being as similar as possible as systems installed with Debian-Installer with default choices, I do not see disadvantages for doing so. If the cloud-init backport works well, another solution would be to add cloud-init to Wheezy in the next point release. (In know that it is not on this list that it has to be formally proposed, but I think that this request would only have a chance to pass if it is largely consensual here, so let's discuss it here first).
