A pilot could well fly something like a C152 'using LAPL privileges', but with a lapsed SEP Class Rating. So what happens when he gets his medical back - does he now need to fly a proficiency check in order to renew his SEP Class Rating?
Yes.
This is already the situation with SEP Class Ratings on CPLs and ATPLs.
The flight time should still count towards the Revalidation of an SEP, so, if people allow their SEP to lapse, they are in the same situation as someone who has forgotten to get their licence signed by the due date, and they should have to Renew it just like anyone else.

Ps.
With the ever increasing complexity of Revalidation/Currency requirements, do you really think that the majority of ordinary people still even care if their LAPLs/SEPs/SSEAs are still valid or not?
