I have seen such a board in use.  About six years ago, one of the guys I
worked with had a board produced by QUADRAM.  I forget the name by now
(my memories are slowly fading into grey....) but it might have been QUADLINK.
I do not know if the board is still availiable, but it looked nice in those 
days.  I remember one problem was that altough the apple disk drive allowed
half track stepping (a basis of one of the protection schemes), the IBM didn't.
Thus, some copy protected software did not run.  Good luck.
