Does this mean that you are not one who believes that the entire Star Wars saga is about the downfall and redemption of Anakin Skywalker?
Also, doesn't not having Anakin in the suit conflict with Obi-Wan's line: "A young Jedi named Darth Vader, who was a pupil of mine until he turned to evil..."? How will you get around that?

Yeah Ady, you may want to reconsider that one.

Perhaps the solution would be to, not so much omit, but rather downplay certain aspects in a manner similar to what the Phantom Editor did with midi-chlorians. Regardless, this will be a difficult thing to do, especially in a way that is smooth and doesn't conflict with the pacing of the rest of the saga. "To a dark place this line of thought will take us. Great care we must take."

EDIT: I wanted to point out this article that I just read: http://www.cbc.ca/arts/story/2005/06/10/lucas050610.html

In it GL openly admits to not being the greatest writer in the world, in fact being a rather bad one in terms of dialogue.

I bring this up because, for all the flack that both myself and others give GL, I beleive that there is "still good in him" so to speak. While, yes, I do believe he made some very poor choices when producing the PT, GL is, as someone said earlier and as evidenced by the article, not a stupid person. So, instead of we the fans continuously badgering and berating the man's name to the point that one day we dishearten him to the point that he shamefully retires his mantle, we should be offering forms of constructive criticism in hopes that GL will one day retain that level of greatness we once associated him with.
