What if you have already filed your application, are waiting for a decision and one of these amendments regards exactly what you have already applied for, what then? 

This is not an easy thing to answer without making things complicated!

Retroactive affect of new laws and regulations is very uncommon in Sweden, and its almost impossible to impose retroactive affect on rights awarded through a favorable government decision. 

Within the field of Migration Law in Sweden, a touch more frequent, like the Swedish governments proposition to revoke the permanent residence permits awarded on asylum grounds.

If you are in an application process however, you do not have a protected favorable decision yet, making you open to be affected by the changes! If you are affected or not, and in what manner, will depend on the wording and structure of the new law or regulation and if there are transitional provisions or not.
