I may be a little late on this theory, but now I'm pretty sure the person in the casket at the end of last season was Michael. I know it was the obvious answer from the get-go (since the funeral parlor was held in a "black" neighborhood), but this last episode pretty much confirmed it in my eyes. Michaels' mother said in this week's episode that she couldn't even tell people that he/Walt had survived the plane crash. No one in the "real wordl" knew who Kevin Johnson was, thus no one showed up at his funeral. The only issue is that on the newspaper clipping it said something to the effect of the name being "John Lantham". I'm not sure if that's exactly what it said, but kind of a far cry from Kevin Johnson. Then again, Kevin Johnson was the name Tom gave him. John Lantham could be the name he was using as an alias since he got back. There's been a lot of talk about keeping secrets and lying to people in FFs, and the casket did look really small, and we know Michael at least had an apartment, AND we know he obviously disappeared. Plus if Widmore can stage a plane wreck, he can probably fake one dude's death. I'm thinking out loud here.

I wasn't aware that anyone could even make anything out of the shots of the newspaper from the season finale.

I think the guy in the coffin could still be Locke or Ben because although they are 2 of the Major characters but i can see Jack staging an escape and a the Oceanic lot go with him and i can see them dragging one of Locke & Ben with them.
