Interesting idea -- I'll have to give it some thought. There is definitely something going on with the eyes.
I had a wild speculation last night as well. I was re-reading "The Cry of the Phoenix" chapter, and both Tonks and McGonnegal comment on Dumbledore's trust of Snape. McG says something along the lines of "he seemed to know something we didn't." Tonks, I think, said something along the lines of "I always thought he must have something on Snape."
My wild speculation: What if Snape made an Unbreakable Vow to Dumbledore? When Snape said he didn't want "to do this anymore," Dumbledore did remind him that he "promised."
