I agree to that, absolutely. - Basically...

However it might be an idea to have KDE-only related discussions on a 
sub-forum at KDE.

If so it should be clearly stated on Mageia main forum that KDE related 
questions should be postet there, and link to there.

(and a sticky post a KDE sub forum sould tell users to post oter questions @ 
Mageia, link)

Having such sub forum @ KDE gives:

1) Mageia users more easily get to read tips, workarounds whatever regarding 
KDE

2) Mageia get a bit more visibility, hopefully attracting users and maybe 
developers.
