What if, just a conjecture here, it wasn't just up to Dumbledore when Snape 
came back to the Light? What if Dumbledore was ready to give the man another 
chance, remembering the bright young man that he'd help to teach years 
before, but somebody else, say Moody or that straight-shooting Frank 
Longbottom, declared that they'd not beleive that Snape wasn't a double 
until he'd given them something wildly juicy?

That gives us Dumbledore as good-hearted believer in the light side of human 
nature, plus all the family fun of a bloody ambush!
