Except that `ntfs-3g` can read and write NTFS and hasn't seen the need
for updates to follow those hypothetical changes on MS's side. So if
there has been updates, they've been subtle and discreet enough not to
require significant changes on "our" side. In constrast an `ext2`
filesystem driver for Windows would have trouble reading (and even more
so, writing) some `ext4` filesystems.
