I agree. Not that this hasn't surely been mentioned thousands of 
times before I even read the books, but I tend to think that when 
Dumbledore said in CoS that only a "true Gryffindor" could've pulled 
Godric's sword from the Sorting Hat, he meant it quite literally, 
that only someone of the Gryffindor bloodline could've done it.
