Correct. The UbuntuGIS packages use the Debian GIS packaging, which is
not co-installable.

The upstream grass packages for Ubuntu will now be maintained by the
GRASS developers in UbuntuGIS instead of their own PPA.

The Ubuntu packages may regain the ability to co-install, I'm not sure
what Martin's plans are about that. That's still something we need to
discuss.

It was briefly discussed on grass-dev, see:
