I have two Firewire drives daisy chained, Time Machine 1 and Time
Machine 2, and switch back and forth between them with no problem. The
icon of the drive which I've selected to be active shows the special
Time Machine icon and the other drive reverts to the generic Firewire
drive icon.

That does not appear ro be the case. Reports are that you can swap out
the drive TM uses for the backup and TM keeps on ticking. I have not
tried this for myself yet.
