I wonder if part of the problem is just the way the books are set up as whodunnits. I mean yeah Snape has his humanity and all that, but for nearly the whole series, except for the pensieve flashback in OOTP, he's been shown as, yes, genuinely getting pleasure from being an ass to everyone. And then we get the big reveal chapter in DH that he's REALLY a big hero and he did it for love so it makes everything ok. It's the actively bullying his students and people who DON'T deserve it for 6 books that makes it harder for me to accept the whole "Albus Severus" thing. But JKR loves her big secrets and big reveals, and there are some characters and character arcs that suffer for it. She just succeeded too well in making us hate the guy that I just don't have that kind of sympathy for him. Admittingly, part of that is also due to some kerfuffles with hardcore Snape apologists who can't even think of ANY wrong he's done whatsoever.

For what it's worth, I'm fascinated by the dynamic of James and Lily precisely because I don't think it would have really worked out between them had they survived. I dunno about him being a tyrant, but I picture him as the kind of guy who once he found out the girl of his dreams was a human being with actual flaws, he wouldn't be able to handle it. I think Snape couldn't either, really. They both strike me as being more in love with the ideal of Lily rather than her as a human. Or maybe I'm just projecting, due to my annoyance of Lily being written as this flawless woman.
But speaking of James, I would have liked to see at least a little indication that Snape secretly hated Draco cause good God he is absolutely everything Snape hated about James. I know, I know, keeping up appearances by favoring the children of Death Eaters but doesn't it pain Snape at all that his own house seems to be made up of idiots? Part of that is JKR's failure to write even ONE Slytherin as competent! I would so love some scene where Snape just explodes and rants and rails about this prize-winning idiocy of Draco and his henchmen:)

Discounting Lupin's behavior in DH (I love the idea of Tonks/Lupin but in the books it just played out as a contrived attempt to produce a war orphan at the end), he is definitely a good role model. He is everything a teacher and mentor should be, and, well, I could probably fill out an essay on his awesomeness. I'd say Luna's a role model too (well, mine at any rate:), she proudly stands out and is a helluva lot more perceptive that people give her credit for.
