Incorrect. The Sport Plane category still requires a driver's
license, but not a pilot's license.

Of course it doesn't require a pilot's license since the US FAA
doesn't issue any pilot "licenses", only airman certificates.

But your premise is still incorrect in any case. From an FAA web
site:

Pilots and Flight Instructors
These are the new pilot and flight instructor certificates that would
be established:

New airmen certificates would include a student pilot certificate for
operating light-sport aircraft, a sport pilot certificate, a flight
instructor certificate with a sport pilot rating.
Two new aircraft category and class ratings -- weight-shift-control
(with land and sea class ratings) and powered parachute.
New training and certification requirements for these new ratings.
A current and valid U.S. driver’s license or an FAA airman medical
certificate would be required to operate a light sport aircraft.
