Well, maybe i've missed something, but Mageia or linux in general is not about attracting masses of people.
It's about libre and free, high-quality open source software. Maybe you should read http://linux.oneandoneis2.org/LNW.htm

To have a system, or an option to install a bucnh of files with from non free would also improve the user experience. (chromium, flash, video drivrs, skype, DVD, MP3, etc...) you select the checkbox when you install the distruib, and it's usable the at the first startup.
(there is plenty of ideas like that, a specific topic could be a good start for it.)
Also, for the NTFS part, that is not true. In Mandriva and Mageia your windows partitions are mounted read/write
after the installation, you'll only get those permission errors for internal partitions, and it's an upstream KDE bug.

Is wrong... My user was never able to access the ntfs partition with both mandriva and mageia after the installation. I had to play with the partition option to get access to them...(and I always forget how to do it...)
