Then does the 3.5" floppy not work in slow mode? Or does the machine know to 
speed up whenever the floppy is being accessed? It must be the latter, as 
I'm pretty sure I've booted into GS/OS, forgetting to switch back to fast 
after running some IIe stuff.

For the record, I think Appletalk depends on 2.8 MHz operation, too. But I'd 
be willing to lose Appletalk if it meant a faster machine without a 
costly/rare accelerator card.
