Rich,
Yes, they both work. QPC2 treats the drive as a native QDOS floppy
right away. With Q-emuLator you have to mount it as a QDOS floppy on
one of the MDV slots, but it works.

I can confirm that it works too. If you plug in two USB floppy disks,
the first becomes A: and the second B: ... quite the way it should be.
I wonder what happens if you plug in a third one :-)))

But, actually, it's a good question. If Windows did mount a third USB
floppy as, say, F: would QPC mount it as FLP3_?
No, QPC supports only 2 FLP drives.
