Star Wars DVDs?

[OB1]

Yeah, I think OB1 meant old, not young.

Oops, yes I meant that he was too old. They want to train Jedi at a very young age for the reason ABF pointed out.

Wow that'd be really, really cool--and it'd serve to link them all together so much...but because anything like that could be done, George Lucas would have to get OB1's permission.

If only that were the case.

Qui Gon can't be shown as a force ghost because he wasn't able to retain his physical appearance after he died. He did do something that no other jedi was able to do--which is retain some identity after death--but it won't be until Obi-Wan dies that a Jedi is able to retain his physical appearance after death. You'll see an explanation for that in Episode III. Maybe Mace learns the trick as well, but I doubt it.
