Does anyone else find it interesting that there is no mention of the Taint on either half of the power in Aviendha's visions? This seems like a huge giveaway by Brandon - I would have thought that the obvious conclusion to TG would be to use both powers to Seal away the DO for good, but then also cut off human access to both powers to prevent the taint from causing another breaking.
But it looks like there's a different way to seal the Bore.
One possibility here is that in Aviendha's vision, Rand did not seal the Bore properly. This allowed both sides of the power to go unTainted, but let the DO slip through enough to influence the Seanchan takeover. It's possible that he could have driven the Seanchan conquest (though I think they have enough motive regardless).

The DO needs to be sealed away completely, and humans shouldn't be able to touch the OP. IIRC the wolves have said before that humans were running with them long before they were using the OP. That being said, I don't think it's impossible to think that the DO will be sealed away completely and then generations down the road humanity slowly loses their connection with the OP. I don't see why it would be a, "Well, there goes the Dark One. HEY! What happened to the One Power?!" sort of situation.

Why does the OP usage need to disappear for rand to succeed?

Perhaps "obvious" is the wrong word - replace it with "most likely".

how do cannons out-range channelers? Rand says he can channel up to 5 miles away.

there's no reason why people shouldn't be able to touch the OP....

Whichever author wrote it, fact remains that it's a pretty big reveal.
