"It has emerged that this limitation for new applicants has always existed in law, but has never been enforced."

Not moving goalposts, just enforcing the law.

Perhaps the biggest change here is that people renting a property will only be able to get a residency visa for one year at a time, rather than the current three years.

Eric do pardon me for not wording it to your liking, I can read and in my opinion they have moved the goalposts.

The problem seems to be different areas doing their own thing as regards this. I got a 2 year one a few months back on a rental agreement but wifey is due back from UK next week after being there for 6 months. We intend to get her residency once back but i think we can only get 14-15 months as passport runs out sometime in 2013 so i'll report back once we apply.
It may also be a ploy to whack up the visa costs in the next year or so too?
I know a few people in the Fethiye area currently going for residency so will see what happens there too.

As Starman says the criteria varies from region to region.  The article in Voices referred to Didum and Kuşadası - are they in Muğla region?
