I think back to this scene from ROTS:
Anakin/Darth Vader is clearly infatuated with the ability to keep friends and loved ones alive.
Maybe Vader starts to look for ways to learn the power in order to help out Padme that Plagueis possessed and unknowingly awakened the soul of Plagueis.
Would also tie in the deleted scene from the movie quite nicely.
Would not only then be referencing the fact that Vader would not kill his son, but also that Vader looking into a way to control life due to his sentiment for Padme is what causes the soul of Plageuis to return.

Its interesting, that quote could point to a lot of different people. If the Inquisitor survived, it would be something that he would say since he was a die hard Imperial who served Vader and knew him well.
You could even argue that Kaanan or Ezra Bridger from Rebels could fill that role as well, remember that Kaanan would have been active during the Clone Wars, and he would be fairly old by the time TFA awakens rolls around, also him falling to the Darkside would make sense if Ezra and Ahsoka fall. I could point to the hint though that Kylo collecting Vaders helmet could point to Bridger who collected Helmets, and would probably be in his 60's or so by the time TFA rolls around.
I doubt Vader would have cared all that much about the secret of saving people or looked into it, frankly when Padme died pretty much anyone that he had an attachment to died until Luke showed up. Vader was much more obsessed with finding an apprentice and continuing the rule of two by killing his master.
Part of the thing that made Vader cool was that he was crippled and scarred and clearly didn't care about healing himself using the force (EU doesn't count anymore remember, so the stuff in the horrible Shadows of the Empire where he tried to heal himself).
Vader didn't need a physical body to be powerful, he had his peerless ability in the Dark Side and learned to live with his injuries, and in fact depended on them to help his with his rage.
Maybe its just me, but I don't want a Voldemort type that makes Palpatine look foolish and sloppy.
