symbolism in Haibane Renmei? *SPOILERS INSIDE!!!*

Well they say the second time you read/watch tings you get alot more out of it, and I know I sure am after watching Haibane again! So I have a few ideas about things, but I'll ask here just to see if I got them "right" on what other's opinions are on it (and as I said as the topic name, spoilers all the way through cause I didn't feel like making a million tags^^)
- Does the wall represent temptation? Since it should never be touched and those who do are punished.
-they say the bird in the well came in that form, so possibiliy it was human from where Rakka used to live? Or since it was "someone precious" and ended up forgiving her, could it have been God?
-When Haibane have those dreams I noticed a pattern: seems like they all end up showing how the person died (ice lake, river, falling, rocky pebbles on train tracks) so when Rakka felt lonely and "didn't want to be a part of the world" in her former life, did she try to commit suicide and ended up falling with the "precious person" trying to help her from dying? Since she ended up being sin-bound because of Kuu, seems like it also parallels her former life.
