Has Eb already chosen his successor? If he has, who?

I don't think I said that, but I wouldn't put it past me.  Still, I think it's likely that the bearer chooses, but I think it's plausible that the staff can reject, and possibly even prefer, a candidate.

As the Winter Knight would Harry be obliged to return it to Mother Winter do you think if it came into his possession?

Only if she asked for it. Mother winter could have, not gifted the staff but allowed it to be taken for a purpose. She permitted Harry to leave with the unraveling not as a gift but a necessity to make the courts balanced once again.

I bet the Blackstaff used by a wizard winter knight would have epic concequences. The knight mantle is a portion of the Queen, while the staff is an artifact of the Queen. Since the Blackstaff can break the seven laws, and the star born has power over outsiders and the winter court mans the outer gates. It seems to me Harry was destined to be the bearer of the staff and use it against the outsiders.

Forgive me, but that sounds like a terrible idea.  Children shouldn't be given immense power with no consequences.  Children are little psycopaths; proper parenting is what makes them functioning members of society.  Have you not watched the Twilight Zone?
