Sorry I don't have the time to reply to your whole post; I'm going 
away for some days. I just wanted to say that my point is not that 
Harry is not a true and/or natural Gryffindor; a lot of clues point 
in the direction that he certainly is. What I'm saying, is that he is 
also strongly connected to the Slytherin house. I'm sorry this does 
not make sense when I can't explain in detail. But let me just throw 
out a crazy thought (based on canon as I see it): If such things as 
the house's heirs are going to be important in the Harry Potter 
story; then I have reason to believe Harry is BOTH the Gryffindor 
Heir AND the Slytherin Heir (inherited accidentally? from Voldie)... 
Meaning: The once old, best friends Salazar and Godric reconsiled at 
last; in one true heir! Something which could come in handy in the 
final war when the houses need to stand united...

Sorry, just a teaser; I don't have the time right now to back it up 
with canon evidence :-)
