Ever officially commented on?
Is "Both grapplers take the damage, you do not get a save to extinguish the fire when in a grapple." reasonable?

But ninjas can't grab you if you're on fire...

That's crazy talk. Everyone knows that

If no ninjas are involved though, that sounds okay.
EDIT: This is totally ironic and absolutely appropriate.

I'd say that both people catch fire, and either grappler can then try to roll the grapple on the ground to put it out with a regular grapple check.

I'd say that you CAN grapple somebody, but both of you take fire damage, and the fire can't be put out until both are free again. Get your fire-resistance gear and grapple somebody into the inferno!
What if the person on fire is a Bear?

Combine this with epic escape artist imo.

Then they'd be grappling you with their Smokey Bear hands. What else?

Then you probably don't want to get into grappling with him. Or maybe you do. If someone wants to grapple a flaming bear, who am I to stop them?

are bears a "person"?
mmm... maybe a druid or wizard who shape shifted into a bear and is on fire?

Oh snap, Bear3? Talk about godless killing machines, and the fire isn't helping matters.
