This appears to have been fixed with unity-settings-daemon 14.04.0+14.04.20140606-0ubuntu3 At least a short test shows log outs & restarts are not re-enabling the touchpad.

Possibly during the course of normal use, restarts ect. it is 'sensed' that the mouse is not connected & touchpad -enabled is mistakenly restored?
