My thoughts on it are that Anakin is genuinely joking...... teasing her as a politician just as Han teased Leia calling her "your worship". But nevertheless it still helps to foreshadow the rise of the Empire.
But he's not joking. The way he says it isn't joking. The way it's edited isn't joking. The way the music sort of stops isn't joking.
And I say forget about the forshadowing. You don't need it. Forshadowing is overused these days-...especially in the PT.
I hope I didn't come off rude. Just my two cents.
