For now, the easiest way is to use the hard drive emulation mode. This should work transparently. But I don't know how many BIOSes correctly implement the emulation. If you really want to use the no emulation mode, it would be the easiest to port the feature from GRUB Legacy, as you guess. FYI, a student might work on this issue in the Summer of Code.
