Paragon only mentioned they are planning to release mkfs.ntfs in their
FAQ, not the fsck tool[1]. So we'll need ntfs-3g or Windows for fsck
anyway if they don't release it. Stability and further code
maintenance, however, are matters of greater concern as Ted Ts'o
pointed out[2]. Maybe we should hold it back for some time to see what
will happen.
