I don't know, that would have been a really stupid ending.

I think that people forget that Lucas envisioned these films as a salute to the serials of the 40's and 50's where the hero's usually won in the end.

While the Ewok thing would have been better with the original idea of using Wookies, the ending was what it should have been.

Vader redeemed, the hero's victorious and evil vanquished.

Having an ending where Luke goes off depressed and alone, the Rebels are screwed is stupid.
