The skeletons in the cave are supposed to end up being proof that the producers had the end of Lost in mind from the very beginning. I don't think that the skeletons are Rose and Bernard and here's why. I believe that the whole story of the tailenders (The Other 48 Days, etc...) was the result of an elaborate April fools day joke. When the episode where Boone climbs up into the plane and ultimately falls to his death happened (just before April 1st, 2005), the original episode had Boone saying on the radio in the cockpit "we are the survivors of Oceanic Flight 8 1 5" and the response came back from a young male voice "there were no survivors of Oceanic Flight 8 1 5". Which at the time didn't make sense to people because we didn't know about the staged plane at the bottom of the ocean. So, there were people on the ABC boards that insisted that what they heard was "no, we're the survivors of Oceanic Flight 8 1 5". There was a very big board debate (practically a board war) So, on April 1st, 2005 ABC put the transmission up on their website with a new dubbed response that we hear now (with an older male voice - Bernard). And the producers went out and created the tailenders' storyline. Look at the results - the only survivor of the tailenders' group is Bernard (we think) and Cindy and the kids, so, obviously the tailenders weren't that important to how the endgame is going to play out... So, unless Bernard was going to materialize in some other way, he can't be part of something that will prove that the producers had this all planned out from the beginning. Also, making those skeletons Rose and Bernard doesn't seem to prove that they had the end planned - it proves that they had time-travel planned, but we aren't quite to the end yet.
Anyway, that's my take on it...
