LOST FINALE AND BENTHAM

i was wondering about the finale of LOST how the oceanic six take about a certain jemery bentham. when i saw his name on one of my history study guides, i decided to do a little research and this is what i found…

Bentham was a British political reformer. In an age when the death penalty was imposed for thefts as small as 5 shillings (maybe $20 today), or for unknowingly passing counterfeit money, for which the humane alternative was “transportation” to penal colonies like Georgia or, after the American Revolution, Australia, Bentham proposed an ideal kind of prison, the “panoptikon” (“all seeing”), where prisoners would be under constant supervision. This is more or less what modern prisons are like. 
At the same time, Bentham had unusual ideas in other areas. Certainly the most unusual was what he wanted done with his body. Bentham thought that his body should be preserved and kept on display. This would be his “Auto-Icon.” He believed this is what might be done with all famous men. His body, indeed, was preserved and is kept at the University College of London (UCL) in a wooden cabinet, modestly and precisely labelled “Jeremy Bentham.” The body as such is not visible, since it is clothed and the head has been removed and replaced with a wax one.

my idea is that somehow Locke is uses Bentham’s idea and thats why the producers used his name, in hopes someone at home would make the connection.
im not sure, but i have a feeling that this connects to LOCKE somehow, seeing as his body ends up in AMERICA in a casket.

i wonder…
