Something along those line is what I had in mind.

User plugs in a btrfs disk and it get's mounted and users can 
create/copy/delete files without problem.
various applications/tools support and can assist the end user should he 
hit a failing disk and or failing partitions
encrypting a btrfs partition works etc.

Basically not a full btrfs feature rich application support such as 
snapshoting etc.. just normal novice end user day to day actions that 
involves mounting external drives which have btrfs on them and 
create/copy/delete files and any tools that aid him in rescue/recover 
failing drives that he might encounter.
