IMO, this is a powerful theory and well-based in canon.  Dumbledore 
has been nothing but supportive and protective of Harry from the 
start.  However, if Dumbledore merely saw Harry as means to an end-
the complete destruction of Voldemort- then that protection and 
support would have no heart behind it-only calculations.  I simply 
refuse to believe that Dumbledore is anything but what he appears-and 
any information he is keeping from Harry at the present is for his 
own good.  My final point is this: IMHO, Dumbledore's triumphant look 
is based on some knowledge that only he possesses-but I state 
emphatically- that there would be no look of triumph from him- if 
that knowledge contained the certainty or even the possibility of 
Harry's complete destruction being necessary to finally and 
completely destroy Voldemort.  IF Harry's death is necessary-(which I 
do not consider possible) then Dumbledore ALREADY has a plan to bring 
him back (why else is the phoenix so predominate in the story?).  If 
not-where is the "triumph?"
