vzctl stop does unmounting of the root area. If you stop VPS from within
a VPS itself, the mount is still there -- and you can umount manually
(vzctl umount NNN).

Creating a cron job for that is problematic - you can not distinguish a
case there you stopped VPS from inside so it needs to be unmounted from
the case there you just mounted a VPS (say, to do some maintenance). So
it is left as is, since there is no problem to left it mounted - it does
not consume much resources etc.
