While I agree with what you say here and I also think that it would be
nice if that driver was maintained and had more features... really,
creating a temporary FAT image of a few hundred MBs with some files
inside takes less than a second in a modern computer, you can boot
QEMU like this and you won't probably even notice the difference:

   $QEMU -drive if=ide,file=$(create-image.sh),driver=raw
