Add me to those who think this is a great theory.  It also made me 
wonder, in GOF then, when Harry's wand draws Cedric, Bertha, his 
parents out of V's wand, does that symbolize that Voldemort has now 
lost the powers these people gave him?

There should be a way for Aurors (and wizards in general) to kill 
without using the AK curse. Sometimes killing might be necessary in 
self defense, but if they use the AK aren't they automatically 
thought to have crossed a line into dark wizardry?

Shouldn't have snipped your first dilemma, since I wanted to add that 
it really solves the problem of how Harry can be a parseltongue 
without being the heir to Slytherin.
