I've still never been able to track down the elusive dual-slot PDS adapter that came with the accelerator option for the Power Workstation. After looking at pictures of other multi-PDS adapters for the LC's and consulting with people smarter than me, I suspect it was mostly a passive adapter, possibly with some programmable logic to handle PDS cards that needed bus-mastering. I'm told that shouldn't be necessary for a simple ethernet card though, so I simulated a completely passive adapter by adding a passthrough to this ethernet card and stacking some of the LC accelerators I have ontop of it:

My LCII booted fine each time, but the machine couldn't see the ethernet card. However, the only two LC accelerators I own are both maybe too "fancy" for this experiment, as they have added cache and RAM. I suspect that a simpler accelerator, like an Interware Booster, may have worked, but I don't have one (someone wanna loan me one?

). I also noticed this subtle language in the Power Workstation's product description:
I think that further confirms that only very specific accelerators would work with the MicroMac dual-slot PDS adapter (or any of the other multi-PDS adapters for that matter).
