Some more progress. I am able to select "HFS" from the partitioner now
and format a disk with HFS.
For some reason, it's not offering HFS Plus for selection and it also
prints an empty error message which needs to be answered with "No".
But after that, it will actually format and mount a partition with
HFS which is what we need for the GRUB installation.
A test image which does that can be found here if you want to play
with that:

Note: This image does not install a working system at the moment unless
you do that manually on the command line. So if you don't want to
end up with a broken system, don't use this.
