Hi,
I am intereested on reading uuid from ext2 partitions. I've been
searching on grub2 source code and I suppose it is very similar to the
fs->label function (or whatever it is), maybe only a transformation from
binary UUID to ascii UUID is the only complicated thing to add.
But before implementing anything...
Has anyone worked on uuid support for ext2 on grub2?

No, but it is on the todo list. First we need generic interfaces for
this. Support for this should not be limited to ext2. I even think
this should not even be limited to filesystems, but sometimes
partitions or even disks can have UUIDs too. In that case we should,
IMO, make that information available as well.
