    Strange... NTFS-3G works in OpenIndiana for example (r/w, with moderate
    glitches for me - i.e. many directories seem empty until refreshed, but
    nothing like data loss or corruption).

    It is not AFAIK part of the OS, though is available in another repo.

    I wonder if anything forbids its use in OmniOS?

    Alternately, if there IS something fundamental here, you can use either
    a Live Media boot, or an alternate BE, or a VM (with USB passthrough),
    and use OI to transfer data from NTFS to ZFS. Alternately, rsync also
    works on Windows (I use cwRsync, latest free version - I think they
    went proprietary some time back).

    HTH,
