Of course, they may not do anything like that. But they could and it could reinvest people who thought about leaving if/when they kill Jon.

If that makes sense.
And to take this thought pattern and run down the tracks with it...

It would make some sense IF this is the plan with Jon Snow - to have him revived with the Kiss of Life from a priest of the Red God ... though with Melisandre leaving with Stannis, it's tougher to see that happening, but maybe Thoros of Myr or Beric Donderrion shows up to do that?.

Much more impactful and much more of a big reveal to do that with Jon Snow than introducing it with Cat Stark.

I mean, think about it from the perspective of reading the book... I'm not shitting my pants about Snow because I'm confident the Red Woman is going to revive him or something. But if we had NOT seen Thoros of Myr reviving Donderrion and then Donderrion reviving Cat Stark... would I have that confidence? Nope. I wouldn't even have a clue.
