Well, it does work for /tmp and /run as well as anything else can possibly
work for /tmp and /run inside a chroot, namely if you're running anything
in a chroot that needs directories created in /tmp and /run, the chroot
either needs to have a persistent /tmp and /run or you have to arrange for
it to run at least some init scripts during boot.

My experience is that mostly the sorts of stuff that needs specific
directories in /tmp and /run isn't run in a chroot, and when it is, often
they just use persistent /tmp and /run.
