I can't speak for John, but your polyamory idea finally helped me figure out what I personally want from their relationship: a polyamorous Mary/John/Sherlock relationship, possibly minus the romance but definitely including the emotional intimacy and permanency on the John/Sherlock side. I don't (necessarily) need those two to actually be sleeping together. What I want and increasingly need is a kind of functional marriage between those two, if I'm to feel fully convinced by their relationship.
I wrote a bit about this over at my own blog, but mainly I wanted to thank you for your very well-thought out and convincing thoughts on this matter. What a gift to the fandom as we head into this final episode!
