Does the driver support turning off the IR illumination, thus eliminating interference in the range data?

I don't believe the driver supports that. You can manually occlude off the IR projector with a piece of tape, but I don't think you would want to do that. I don't think one Kinect will work with the IR pattern of a second Kinect. The interference might not be a big problem see this video for a working example

What kind of frame rate can we expect? Can we throttle the driver somehow? Does the driver support polling?

The driver supports throttling. Make sure to put the Kinects on different USB buses if possible. If you're having trouble with frame rate, turning the resolution down will probably help.
