Oh yeah. I have no problems with the "adding to previously established canon" type of retroactive continuity. If it adds to the story, I'm all for it. I mean, man, I think "In the Beginning" was probably the best instance of it in the series. Yeah, some did argue that there were a ton of plotholes and that it didn't exactly made sense, but in my book, it added substantial significance to storylines already in place. Even the Trickster/Gabriel one works for me, because while maybe not as seemless, it works for "Mystery Spot". You watch it again with that in mind, and it still works. And more importantly: it adds new layers of meaning.
