As I installed Ubuntu last weekend myself, I want to mention my POV to that mechanism.
It's hard for those who doesn't want or can't connect to the internet during installation, but for those may the One be the wrong installation method.
The bigger problem in the current state of the ubuntu installation process is, that you have to enter the passphrase for a wireless connection with the wrong keyboard layout. After that you where prompted to enter a key for the gnome keyring and it wasn't clear at that time which keyboard layout is used. Also in the end of the installation where you have to enter a password for the user.

So, if Mageia wants to offer an similar method, we need to take care of that.

Regards,
Thorsten
