As noted in the blazons that you quote, the SCA does "(Fieldless)".
Also "cinquefoil".

     (Fieldless) On a cinquefoil gules, a shakefork argent.

  From Francois's armory precedents,
  <http://www.sca.org/heraldry/laurel/precedents/francois/wreath.html#FOIL>,

      There is no difference given between a rose and a cinquefoil by
      long-standing precedent, as noted in the LoAR of August 2001,
      which referred to the LoARs of September 2000 and November 1990.

So the proposal is equivalent to

     (Fieldless) On a rose gules, a shakefork argent.

The College of Arms Glossary of Terms at
<http://64.233.167.104/search?q=cache:m6cgAOWILn0J:www.sca.org/heraldry/coagloss.html>
Table 2, Restricted Charges, says that the only instaboing roses are
the crowned rose, the rose en soleil, and the Tudor rose, so it has
dodged that bullet.

As an exercise, it might be good for you to state why you think each
one is a possible conflict, and refer to Rules for Submission part X
(<http://www.sca.org/heraldry/laurel/rfs.html#10>) to see.
In particular, why doesn't the proposal conflict with the Lancastrian
rose,
     (Fieldless) A rose gules.
?
