And as you wrote, it is far from clear when the new rates will actually take effect. I don't think the companies can revise their billing systems that fast.
Also unclear is if and how many provides may undercut those caps and by how much.

It had to be w/o VAT since VAT rates are country dependent (15-25% depending how greedy is a specific national government
). Moreover, AFAIK there's also a currency converting rule for non-euro countries to prevent from getting extra "hidden" profits on unfair exchange rates.
I think that updating the billing system isn't a long process if identical rates were to be applied to roaming in all EU. If ops wanted to complicate things within the limits, it might be really longer....
