As for the ROTJ deleted scene, I loved it and immediately thought about how it could be used in ROTJ edits. Unfortunately, you can't tell from the youtube clips but the footage is actually kind of worn. It wasn't restored and looked quite aged. So I don't know if it could be reincorporated properly into the film in its current state.
Having read this, I must admit that it probably is the original footage, but I still don't like it but maybe it appears so bad because of the quality, having been shot by a handheld video camera from a screen.
