I could see this making sense.
I had asked a little while back as to why Sun didn't end up in the 70s with the rest of them. Someone suggested that it's up to her to bring them all into the future (or present time). Why her, though, I don't know.
But thinking about the whole situation... here's my theory... Ben didn't go into the 70s because he's already there as a young boy. Maybe Sun and Frank are there, also? I can't remember if their past (i.e. childhood) has been discussed in detail as of yet. But if not, my guess is that they grew up there, or are at least on the island (in the 70s) at the time of the most recent plane crash. This might also explain why Charlotte died during the time shifts. If they shifted back into the 70s, when she was there as a young girl, that might be "against the rules", so to speak.
I'm also wondering why Sayid was off by himself. Jack, Kate and Hurley were all relatively close to one another when they woke up on the island. Sayid was in the 70s, but showed up later. I think he will be very instramental in their "escaping" the Dharma Initiative.
Personally, I'm still waiting to see what's going to happen with Locke. I'm completely confused about whether or not he's even alive. As in, he's clearly alive on the island, but will it be the same when/if they leave?
