@Nihi,

Yeah jealous!Star Swirl was my original theory too. However, I wanted him to be hovering in the background for the entire season to build him up as an antagoinst. First, Twilight is overjoyed to have her idol around but it becomes ever more plain that his motives are malign. You then could have a wonderful scene when a disillusioned Twilight realises that Star Swirl's academic brilliance does  not automatically make him a good pony and it takes the others to drag her out of her resulting slump.
