The latest chapter added a lot of new info. Based on that I'd say Urahara should definitely be a SWP. He's certainly going to be a serious threat to the Quincy. As a side note, in addition to finding a way to get back stolen Bankai, I think it answers why Ichigo's Bankai couldn't be stolen and makes me suspect that none of the visored shinigami who possess Bankai could've had theirs stolen as well. Also, flashback to the beginning of the arc when we saw Ginjo and company from the back. I believe he stated Fullbringers were also touched by hollows which could be why we saw them at all at Kukaku's. A bit of foreshadowing that they'll play a role in the fight.
