Read support for NTFS has been in the kernel for a while. Write
support is available as well. (I forgot the package name.)
Yea, in the kernel, but this is about the time before the kernel is
loaded. It needs to be GRUB that can read kernel location data as well
as the driver from an NTFS partition and that is asking quite a bit
since then GRUB would need to know a whole bunch of partition formats to
satisfy everyone.
