Except, they really didn't leave it ambiguous at all. In fact, they pretty much spelled out exactly what happened in the Jack-Christian conversation, lest anyone believe something dumb like "OMG it was all a dream!" when Christian told Jack that "it was all real" and that "they all died at different times".
With that, Hurley telling Ben he was a "great number 2" (because I assume they lived out the rest of their lives on the island) and Kate telling Jack how much she missed him (probably lived a long life without him) they basically did everything but put up a subtitle at the end of the show that read "HEY GUYS SEE IT WAS ALL REAL, NOT A DREAM!"

FTR, I interpreted it pretty much the way you did, but I'll point out that if it was all Jack's dream, it's completely possible for Jack to dream he's a changed person at the end (complete with different haircut and different clothes) and for him to dream that his father told him it was all real.
