I think that's why Dumbledore wouldn't let him have that job, he knew that it would mean somethign would happen and he'd lose Snape.
I really do think, with that in mind, that Dumbledore knew what was going to happen. I think Snape told him about Draco's mission and that if Craco did not succeed, that he'd have to kill Dumbledore himself.
It really does make a bit of sense. And Dumbledore wasn't looking for a DADA prof, but Potions. He was doing that after the Unbreakable Vow stuff. So- Snape told him, and Dumbledore knew he was going to die, likely at Snape's hand. It almost seemed like he WANTED it to be Snape instead of Draco. He asked for Snape. He was LOOKING for Snape. I think somehow he knew that if he could stop get Draco talking, then he'd back out and Snape would have to do it.
He knew Snape wouldn't be staying at Hogwarts, anyways.
I'm rambling and that mess followed no order, but what it boils down to is that I think Dumbledore knew a lot more than he was letting on. He knew about the plan. He knew about Snape. HE KNEW. So, yeah.
