Do you think that maybe LV *inadvertently* made Harry into a Horcrux,
and perhaps still doesn't realize that that's what happened?  As was
said in a earlier post, Horcrux-making requires some preparation. 
Perhaps LV was going to use Harry's death as the "fuel" for his last
Horcrux, and had everything ready in advance.  But when Lily's
protective spell repelled the AK, LV lost control of the situation,
and the Horcrux spell took effect and LV's soul-fragment entered
Harry. I would think that if Voldemort thought that killing Harry
would endanger himself, he wouldn't want to do it, or at least would
try to figure out some way of getting his soul-fragment back first.
