I tryed KDE for few minutes, used it intensivly and it crashed sereval
times(mostly taskbar when i asked it to use pixmap as a background.)
So i'm thinking that maybe just maybe Mandrake will switch to some other
more stable WM, for example IceWM (+ DFM or Evolution for desktop icons).
Because this WM is much faster and stable.

Yes, please test all apps. And make 8.2 stable even if you will
have to downgrade or use alpha software. Ask all your developers to
write down any bug or crash on paper, and then go through debug process.
Go and brainstorn every app you mandrake have build.
For example you can add small hint bar for the MCC, something like
on.area("Configure Local and Network Printers").
