Good to know, thanks. The Austrian embassy in London seem pretty confident about my eligibility but my worry is evidence. I've been pleasantly surprised by how helpful they've been so far though. They seem pretty confident that they will have enough evidence of the situation without us providing too much beyond the basics. Fingers crossed.
I just received my German citizenship and passport for similar reasons. Although I already have a long term visa for Switzerland, having that purple passport back does give me an extra layer of security.
FWIW, the German application was quite smooth as long as you had birth certificates of the relevant people proving lineage.
