For the next alpha release, I am going to try out booting FDUBCD as a superfloppy, as ady and others have suggested.
I have done my research again, and the only negative comment I can find is here:
On the other hand, I have not found a single issue report with using reanimatolog's large floppy images. In fact, it is the "gold" standard for people who want out-of-the-box large floppy images.
I have built an 18MB image using the FAT12Build script and it works with no issue on VMWare and VBox.
I will do a bit more test on real hardware, then release 5.2a3 to for others to test.

However, there might still be issues with the BIOS becoming confused with an unusually "large" floppy drive...
