In brief, someone in the US would be able to upload it here, and report themself to the moderators so the book could be moved to the MobileRead US server.

No, I'm afraid not. We are no longer accepting books in our library which are not in the "life+70" public domain. There's a notice at the top of each library section explaining this.

And correct me if I'm wrong (as I often am), but I think it's the case that while you and I are not able legally to download a book like that while we are in the EU (or Canada), we can do so when we visit the US, and it's not then a breach of the author's copyright to bring the downloaded file on my Kindle back into the EU.

That is correct, yes.
