I can confirm that removing linux-image-extra keeps the inintramfs image
intact now.

Title:
  Removing linux-image-extra-X-generic deletes initramfs

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in “linux” source package in Trusty:
  Fix Committed
Status in “linux” source package in Utopic:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Situation: linux-image-X-generic and linux-image-extra-X-generic are
  both installed

  When you remove linux-image-extra-X-generic (e.g. switching from -generic to -virtual) /boot/initrd.img-X-generic is deleted in linux-image-extra-X-generic's postrm script.
  This results into broken boot. At least when / is on LVM etc.
