This is a bit like UMSDOS Linux distros, but with more separation between DOS and the host in your case: Maybe you could extend the Wiki page to explain how DOS can get access to the NTFS drive? In the current version, you only install DOS in a (writeable) disk image which is a flat file from the view of Vista/XP/... NTFS and the DOS in turn cannot see the NTFS drive either... So maybe you can add some tutorial for NTFS4DOS or a similar free for personal use or even more free NTFS driver for DOS on top of your DOS-in- grub4dos-made-virtual-disk approach :-).
