The Acids will unfortunately probably still be okay. Ditto cased pipe tobacco. It'll be your Primetimes that'll be regulated first.
What they'll do with chewing tobacco and snus will be interesting to see.
For cigars, we'll hopefully finally see what brands use dyes, vaseline, casings, and/or bethunes (that don't say anything now). AFAIK, only Graycliff and Puros Indios have publicly admitted to it, and one manufacturer - Padron - has publicly said that they don't.
As an aside:
dye - to get consistent wrapper colour
vaseline (and similar) - to get oily wrappers
casings - flavours added to the tobacco
bethune - the Cuban term for casing
