It does state however that travel of EU citizens is only allowed if they are in transit to the country of their EU citizenship. I wonder how or if this is being enforced? Are onward flights checked at customs? It looks like there is a bigloophole that allows EU passport holders into the EU with little oversight.

"European Union citizens and citizens of Andorra, the United Kingdom, Iceland, Liechtenstein, Monaco, Norway, San Marino, Switzerland and the Vatican, with their main residence in France or travelling to the country in which they are a citizen or resident by transiting through France, as well as their partner and children"

Have any dual US EU passport holders done a quick hop across the pond recently? Any issues?
Where did you see that (the bolded part), that's not what on the Timatic coronavirus site right now for France, it says that French nationals can enter. This is what Timatic says for France:
