There is much more than technical problems...
Because USB is something I don't really see the point to emulate (only point being "for completeness", another boring PC feature), I have very specific requirements.
I won't do anything until someone sends me FULL specs of "All OS" (=OS3.x, OS4, netbsd, linux) compatible (=has drivers) USB hardware board. Full Amiga address space to whatever USB chip wiring. Must be USB chip that has full specs available. Must be Z2/Z3 (for all Amiga compatibility, clock port is stupid hack) There must be enough low level test programs for debugging. I must also have the board.
USB boards are not ancient or obsolete devices that require reverse-engineering. I REQUIRE full specs.
I also won't bother to contact anyone (No one understands emulation and emulation requirements anyway, I don't want to answer stupid questions).
-> Above tasks are 100% Someone Else's Problem.

I don't think that's possible (currently). Inserting or removing the medium into/from a removable drive is different logically to removing the (non-removable-media) drive itself and replacing it with a different drive. Though if that's how OS4 handles USB mass storage devices then emulation of a USB host controller could help there??

UAE removable drive support (when mounting for example USB drives that are PC formatted) sends usual IECLASS_DISKINSERTED/IECLASS_DISKREMOVED input events. (WB would not notice the change without it)
Remove hardfiles/Amiga harddrives are totally different thing. It probably won't work in OS4.
