Ok, am a little nervous, this is the first time that I have posted 
anything!! But I have a couple of theories about what you wrote, so 
here goes!

With Sirius getting gold from his vault, I know that Crookshanks 
went for him, but I really don't think that the Goblins would have 
cared what the MoM would have to say about it. We hear so much about 
Goblin rebellions and the like, I think they are a bit like 
Dumbledore, they run their bank in whatever manner they like without 
regard to the Ministry. 

With Snape, I don't think that he tried to get back into the good 
graces of LV, I remember LV saying (and this isn't a quote b/c I 
don't have my book with me!) that he feared one (Snape) had left him 
forever and then he told the other 'loyal' death eaters not to worry 
because he would pay. He also makes a reference to Karkaroff (I know 
I spelt that wrong!) fleeing when he felt the mark burn. I think 
that Snape went off to spy in some capacity, he may also be an 
unregistered animagus, jealousy at James and Sirius would most 
likely have led him to also accomplish this feat, and he is ofter 
referred to as an over-sized bat. So that is one idea about that. 

Draco waiting in the forest could be as innocent as his father 
telling him to wait out of the way (though he doesn't really seem 
the type to obey orders such as this but if it came from his 
father...) I know many many Draco and Hermione shippers were 
overjoyed at his concern for her, lol. At first I thought it was a 
coincidence but then the great JKR doesn't really do anything just 
because... so I'm still not sure about that one. 

Your other questions have got me thinking, and if I caome up with 
any other possible answers I will let you know! :)

Wow, that wasn't so hard! Hope my first post was ok! :)
