Hopefully this is programming related.

Many people have reported that the NTFS-3G driver works perfectly for writing to NTFS drives without any problems.

If NTFS has been successfully reverse engineered to a useful degree, then why is the kernel driver still only read-only, with write support being very dangerous.....just as it was 5 years agi?
