I have  to agree with Sherry on the question of the inadvisability of 
keeping  Harry in the dark about whatever grand scheme Snape and DD 
supposedly came  up with to cover this non-death.  After all, that 
tactic blew up in  their faces once before. 


Julie says:
I first thought DD didn't tell Harry because he didn't want  Voldemort
to get that information from Harry's mind. But Voldy's been staying
pretty clear of Harry's mind. Now I've had another thought. What if
DD didn't tell Harry mostly to spare Harry from knowing complicity
in his death? Or because he knew Harry wouldn't be able to go
along with it? Snape was barely able to follow through, and then
only after DD's urging ("Severus...please..."). And if the potion in
the cave was ultimately fatal, could Informed!Harry have gone  through
with that part of the "plan"? That would be a lot to put on Harry,
who already has more than enough on his plate.
