I think the implemented behavior is fine.  memcg or cpu* don't do
anything on root cgroup as it doesn't make much (or any) sense.  For
net_prio and cls, I don't see any reason to treat root cgroup
differently and how that would cause conflict when mounted together
with other controllers.  So, yeah, things seem okay to me.

Thanks.
