A Thought about the Secret Keeper Switch

We've been wondering how two such clever people as James 
and Sirius would manage to come up with such a half-baked 
idea--if Voldemort came after Sirius, as he expected, how could 
Sirius be sure he wouldn't give away the switch under torture?

Well, there's that old standby, the suicide pill -- but maybe Sirius 
and James were expecting Voldemort to come after Sirius 
another way. I think they expected that the spy in the Order would 
try to trick Sirius into giving him the secret. Sirius would pretend 
to fall for it, and when Voldemort attacked the wrong place, it 
would prove who the spy was. Thoughts?
