"I don't remember the show specifically comparing Dean to Michael in "Houses of the Holy," but they were certainly more accurate in their description, and much more in keeping with Dean's general awesomeness."
When the Winchesters are in the Church and the priest is talking about the pictures or stained glass windows and the camera would pan to Dean as the priest was talking about Michael. After the episode aired, there was an interview with Sera Gamble about it and I think she pretty much came out and said yes it was about Dean.
You're right in that, TPTB say that angels were not going to be part of the story, so I think it was just a matter of dumb luck that they'd already had an episode a couple of seasons earlier that fit perfectly with the angels and Dean storyline.
Re: may comments about Kripke. Sorry, I wasn't clear, when I said "After some of what Kripke said at Comic Con (not spoilers)" I meant that the Kripke comments that annoyed me were not about spoilers, but rather the characters themselves and past seasons. He made some remarks about how Dean had to learn to love and forgive Sam, which, I'm sorry, I think Dean has always loved and forgiven Sam, so that wasn't a lesson Dean needed to learn.
