Wow Galorme. That's an incredible dream, and it would make a most excellent fan-fic piece, provided you wanted to pursue it.

As an interesting follow-up to all this pity vs. power, I recommend ya'll to read obloquy's opening post in the thread "The Powers of the Istari". It's fascinating, and while not directly related to this thread, it illuminates Gandalf's position and addresses some points that may be of interest to this discussion.
