Snape knew that Harry had any knowledge of what a pensieve was, so 
felt quite safe in leaving him alone with it.  When he returns and 
finds that, not only does Harry know exactly what it is, but is 
actually using it and thus witnessing the scene Snape most wants him 
not to witness, he is naturally livid. Is there any authority for 
believing that Snape does know that Harry knows about the Pensieve?

Hmmm - you bring up another point...There's nothing in the canon 
suggesting that Snape is aware of Harry's knowledge of a pensieve, 
BUT Dumbledore is the one who lent it to Snape to use while teaching 
Harry....and Dumbledore is very well aware that Harry knows what HIS 
pensieve looks like...Hmmm
