Complete guesswork? There are many more common reasons for the EW10 engine to be running lumpy. Things a such as dodgy coilpacks, any number of sensors, hydraulic lifters, VVT problems etc.
Worn engine mounts will result in clunks and bangs as well. I've not ever heard of worn mounts being a problem.

Dodgy ICV wouldn't make it shake quickly either. It would just struggle to run at all.
