So, as a happy end to this story, I received my naturalisation certificate yesterday at the Dutch Embassy in London.
I had applied on the 25th of April, and I learned yesterday that it was already approved and granted on the 20th of June (7 weeks from my application date), but I had to wait for the ceremony for the formal acknowledgement. I didn't know about that until yesterday, but the date is mentioned on my certificate.

I also applied for the passport immediately after that, which should be ready within a month.
