To say I love your treatment of Irene Adler here would be a gross understatement. This is precisely who she's intended to be in Canon - a happily married woman with the brainpower to best Holmes at his own game and confound him twice before breakfast :) And the parallels you showed between them would have to be there, wouldn't they? Their own unconventional nature, and that of the men who love them.
I think that was the best part of all this. Poor Godfrey Norton must have to put up with the same exasperating things Watson does ;) And through it all Mrs Norton nee Adler was likeable. So yes, glorious.
