really cool!

the only thing i'm skeptical about is it becoming distracting to the pace and plot of the film, BUT, hopefully the fim is going to be jumbled a bit anyway, so maybe if Fett is used as a way of moving the plot to certain locations, it could work perhaps?

what if the whole boba fett plotline was the opening 10 minutes of the film? it could be an alternative to vader going to the death star perhaps?

I initially thought that Boba Fett knows that Leia is going to spring Han (what does he care he has already been paid for Han) which gives a new explanation for the nod he gives her when she's in disguise (he might have even have helped Lando and Chewie in to sweeten the pot as John Cavil would put it).

So it need not disrupt the flow, events would play out pretty much as before only without Fett in the skiff battle and the handing over of the location co-ordinates would take the place of Yoda's death which now happens at the beginning of the film (either right at the beginning or after the Vader scene, whichever works best).

It also changes the meaning of "I hope it was worth the price we paid".
