In that case they should be OK, because they would be regarded as
foreign pilots under this EASA proposal.

I don't think EASA can stop foreign pilots flying into Europe.

Incidentally I have just heard that the page 159/160 proposal for
accepting an FAA PPL/IR (sitting four of the 14 JAA ATP exams, 1
checkride etc) is the same as the German "FAA IR to German IR"
conversion requirements pre-JAA. Interesting coincidence.
