This never occurred to me before, but I think it is brilliant! I much 
prefer the idea of Snape's remorse being over Regulus than unrequited 
love for Lily. (The idea of Snape pining for Harry's mother is off-
putting to me in itself, and I consider Snape such a complex character 
that a "traditional" motive, like unrequited love, just doesn't seem 
right for him).
