Incidentally, ssh itself did this, and indeed in my system:
% getent passwd sshd
sshd:x:107:65534::/var/run/sshd:/usr/sbin/nologin
%
inside a chroot:
# getent passwd sshd
sshd:x:101:65534::/run/sshd:/usr/sbin/nologin
#
After seeing that ssh didn't really care about transitioning between the
directories I also sponsored another package changing directories
without bothering about it.

Consider that /run is a tmpfs in a standard system, so this is not
*that* important.
