Harry is Kemmler reborn
Dust Bunny:
Hmmm ... interesting in a TVTropes "Epileptic Trees" kind of way. I'm not buying yet, but you do bring up an interesting possibility.
The one problem I see is Uriel. I'm fairly certain that coming back in this manner would break "The Rules," and Uriel would have done his level best to reduce Kemmler to mage pate, provided he was in a position where the aforementioned Rules would allow him to do so. But since "the Rules" have not been explicitly spelled out, all I can do is call it a suspicion on my part.

Actually, I believe that the Rules only apply to angels. If archangels started bossing around mere mortels, then there would be no free will, we would be slaves.

This one is nice too: Chekhov's Armoury. Quite relevant to the Dresden Files.

I hope you're happy about killing the social lives of several lurkers (me, I was at TvTropes before this site).

Hmmm ... I can agree that "the Rules" Uriel was speaking of apply to angels, but does that mean there are no "Rules" that apply to humans? Remember, Kemmler also had "truck with demons," so this goes beyond just normal interactions governed by human rules.
I'd bet Uriel had the power to enforce the "Once you're dead, youstay dead" with Kemmler if he wanted to/was allowed to. I don't see him being so willing to help Dresden if Dresden was Kemmler reborn.
Admittedly, it's all speculation (fun, but possibly useless). Like I said, I'm not buying ... yet. ;)
