I started this quite some time ago, then ran into problems and let it rot for some months, but I now have a usable version.
FuseHFS is a MacFUSE filesystem that provides write support for HFS disks.
I haven't tried it with real media, but you can create HFS disk images, mount them, and copy things to/from them.
For Mini vMac/Basilisk/SheepShaver, you should make sure the disk image has no partition map, or else it won't be recognised.
Features:
Requirements:
Known bugs:
It's quite an early beta, but I'd like people to try it so we can find more bugs, and maybe even fix them some day.

Try it out and tell me what you think.

Features:
- Format and read/write HFS partitions
- Supports HFS file attributes and resource forks, of course
- Automatically blesses a folder when you copy a valid System file into it
Requirements:
Known bugs:
- I don't recommend editing resource forks directly on the disk image, the documentation on setxattr isn't that clear about when/if an attribute should be truncated, and my testing on the subject was inconclusive, instead just use it to copy files to/from the HFS disks.
- It can't change volume names, since that only works with apple-provided file system modules, MacFUSE can't do it.
- The code is there to support creation/backup dates on items, but for some reason it never gets called, so they don't appear anywhere
