You are not seeing 3D camera lines, you are seeing the new 3D cursor. They make manipulating 3D layers in the comp panel a lot easier and there is no need to change from the selection tool (v) to the rotate tool (w) or change the rotate tool from rotation to orientation. If you hide layer controls you won't be able to accurately grab any axis and make changes in the Comp panel, you'll have to use the properties in the timeline. 

 

Personally, the only thing I think that is wrong with the new 3D cursor is that the lines are way way way way too thick.
