Plenty of hardware runs great on OE without "quirks" but you are right, Windows has better driver support due to more users. Regardless of that, a LOT of us view an HTPC as an appliance box and do not want the Windows headaches just to have XBMC in our living rooms.

On Windows these kinds of problem might be impossible to fix though. We have the Linux driver source, and at least the colorspace problem should not be that difficult to fix ourselves if Intel doesn't. Adding limited range output would be nice too, and I see no reason why it couldn't be done.

Re. other hardware that runs great on OE without "quirks" - is there anything besides Haswell that gives accurate 24000/1001 playback? As far as I know, no other Intel (or AMD or NVidia) system does yet, regardless of operating system.
