for any bolted anchor consisting of two bolts at a reasonable distance from each other, two draws is absolutely the way to go for an anchor. quick, easy, and totally in-line with the rules of a solid anchor.

it is a good idea to carry a couple of longer draws and a medium length draw or two in case the bolts are at a slightly different level.

The OP also asked the question about how the climber then anchors himself to belay from the top in this situation. It seems to take more effort to set up another personal attachment in addition to the quickdraws. How would you do it?
