Or would you have him fall from grace in a different way? Not over attachment to others? I'd be interested in hearing the other ways Anakin could have been turned to the dark side.

1) Owen didn't agree with him joining Obi-Wan on some "damned fool idealistic crusade"
2) He should've "stayed here and not gotten involved." Yes, it has to be on Tatooine where Obi-Wan finds him, but I'd take it a step further and say that Owen felt Anakin shouldn't have "left the farm." It even says so in cut dialogue from the original script, "Anakin should've minded his farming."
Anakin and Luke's journey should be the same save for the fact that Anakin chooses the wrong way and Luke chooses the right way and saves his father in the process.
I think Anakin should not have been a slave, this only complicates the story unnecessarily. I don't think he should've been a pod-racer, this too, slowed the story along, and at no point was I saying, "Oh gee, I wonder if Anakin will win the race!?" Cripes! Anakin still could be the mechanic he was, built a starship to zip around in about the star system, or just above the planet. I have a very fun scene in mind where he's flying back down to Tatooin in this piece of junk he built out of... junk... and it's falling apart around him as he dodging smuggler's ships, laughing all the way.
That'd be Anakin at his best, enjoying what he does and revealing his sense of humor.
Battle for the Galaxy--read the "other Star Wars"
All I know is I haven't seen the real prequels yet.

"Maybe artists shouldn't talk about their art."
"Well kids, I guess your father isn't a hermaphrodite."
"Izzy! enough with the rabid smootching!!"

Another criteria - Unless we're also re-making ROTJ, Luke&Leia's mother needs to be alive for several years after the kid's birth.

You are making a big assumption here that Owen has to be from Tatooine.
Owen doesn't have to be from Tatooine, he just has to wind up there.

But why would he move to Tattoine. I say he was in debt, and he needed Ani to help him with the farm, but Ani left, and Owen fled to Tattoine.
