It's not a complaint, it's just a suggestion. I don't like the thought that Skywalker = Jedi and I especially dislike the thought that force user = lightsaber. A lightsaber is a weapon. Not all force users need weapons. ROTJ implied that Leia will learn the ways of the force, so I'll give you that. But she doesn't need to become a full on lightsaber toting Jedi master. It would make more sense if she remained in politics.
I actually pretty much agree with all your points. I just like the idea of Leia having a red lightsaber because, since Luke & Leia already contrast against one another visually (Luke with his fair hair and black clothes, Leia with her dark hair and white clothes), it'd be cool to make them perfect mirror images of one another with complementary lightsaber colours.
Hell, I don't even want her to have a lightsaber if it can't be red.
