I think Jacob planned everything from the very beginning and expected to be killed by Ben (that's why he did not sway Ben from killing him). If Jacob's plan works, he could be alive again and will have foiled "Anti-Jacob's" plan to kill him.
I think this is a good hypothesis. I also think the reason Jacob doesn't resist is kind of a Christ-ian acceptance of fate or something like that. I think Locke is not dead (at least not permanently. His corpse looked pretty healthy for being, what, 3 months old??)
I watched the first 4 seasons all at once. The first two seasons I was riveted, Could not stop watching. Would watch like 5+ episodes a day. I think somewhere during the 3nd season I was still very interested and invested, but not as addicted as the first two seasons. By Season 4 I was starting to tire of the rising suspense noise at the end of every other scene and was beginning to feel like answers being kept from me was because the creators want to drag this thing out as long as possible, not because anymore substantial mystery was being built or because there was anymore significant mystery or plot that needed to be setup. By Season 5 I would usually watch the episode the day after on my computer rather the Wednesday night it came out. Still interested in the show, but not hooked the way I was in the beginning. I'm not convinced the payoff at the end of the series will be satisfying, but after season 5's finale I am curious to see how Season 6 develops.
I'll be disappointed if Locke is really dead (in that he does not get resurrected) and if he doesn't have an important part/destiny in the whole series, as or near as important as Jack.
