IMO this creates the same situation we're in currently with the addition of SCSI controllers. We add 'lsilogic' as controller if you don't have any which is sub-optimal, but it's the default and the behaviour we've standardized on thus we can't really change it. The auto-added USB controller will be likely sub-optimal either now or in the future. While it seems helpful to add it it can create headaches. To me it seems that the users simply should add the controller manually if the platform doesn't have one.
