Dumbledore does relinquish control of Draco's future, not because he
wants to, but because the events give him no choice. Or they do give
him a choice between taking Draco down with him, if he was going to
die no matter what, and turning Draco over to Snape, who even within
Voldemort's camp would have *some* chance of keeping Draco alive
and in possession of an intact soul. And some is better than none.

vmonte responds:
Hmmm. Am I right in thinking that the "Snape is Dumbledore's Man" 
supporters believe that Snape knew Draco's plan and told Dumbledore 
about the plan before school started? 

I wonder why Dumbledore didn't approach Draco earlier in the school 
year? 

If Dumbledore knew what was going on with Draco you would think that 
he would have at least approached Draco after he was almost killed 
in the bathroom.
