     I think that Harry having a whole, untarnished soul is very 
important to his protection against the soul piece.  As DD's little 
silver instrument describes it, Harry's soul and the Voldy soul piece 
are divided.  I think that DD was checking for that very problem after 
Harry had been able to see through the snakes eyes. I also think that 
this division or separation has to be taken care of, which is why Snape 
said "No Unforgiveables for you, Potter". As long as Harry remains whole 
and untarnished, Voldemorte will not be able to make use of that soul 
piece when they finally confront each other.

     I think that Dumbledore has known about it, or guessed since the 
night at Godric's Hollow, and that this knowledge was the basis for his
"great plan".  JMHO, of course.
