I love this theory. How about Crouch? If I were Dumbledore, I would 
definitely want to know where that man was. Admittedly, this may not 
work. I'm assuming that if you don't want to be on the watch, you can 
keep yourself off the watch, as Voldemort no doubt does. But Crouch 
might just have decided that it would be best if Dumbledore knew 
where he was if anything went wrong. After all, it would 
say "Azkaban" or "Ministry," not what Crouch was up to. 

This explains why Dumbledore didn't start a real search for Crouch in 
GoF, once he started not showing up for work. After all, the watch 
said "Home." (And not "Mortal Peril" because Crouch wasn't in mortal 
peril at the time.) After he escaped, it would have said "Traveling" 
which would have been when Dumbledore realized that something was 
definitely up besides Crouch being ill.
