I haven't done anything like this, and I doubt anyone has, but I'm
wondering what the problem you're actually facing is.  You seem to know
the obvious solutions, a block-mode device driver, an INT 13h hooking
boot ROM, or adding the functionality to your own BIOS.  You don't like
the first option, but I don't see what's preventing you from implementing
one of the second two solutions.
