Alla:

I always thought that this was (ironically)one of the rare occasions that Dumbledore simply goofed up and Snape was faster than him, I think it would fit beatifully and should have served as reminder to Dumbledore that he indeed not always knows best and not alwaus a superior wizard.

Of course before anybody says that I fully acknowledge the possibility that Dumbledore deliberately let Snape get away and thus set up Lily and James for death and their son for all the sufferings and "glory" that lied ahead. All for the greater good of course. :(
