Public bug reported:

It's always a pain to install Ubuntu on a mac because the need to
install REfit or Refind and partition created not beeing directly
bootable by the MAC boot screen...

Seems not a problem at all with the last fedora 21 who is using an mac EFI partition to boot the system, very clean...
I believe it's this method http://glandium.org/blog/?p=2830

here's too a screenshot of the EFI HFS+ formated boot content

Hope we can have this on a next release
