Water would get blown away over a period of millions of years though. I think that's not much of a problem.

Even if you could increase the atmospheric density, the lack of magnetosphere is still a problem when it comes to human habitation, however. Any long-term habitats would need to be built underground, or at least heavily shielded against solar radiation.
