Having Morgana remain an ally is a very interesting idea with a lot of potential. Even if this hypothetical plotline were still to end up with her turning to the "dark side" it would be much more plausible to see this transformation and the events leading to her total turn. It would be a lot easier to do this if she was at first an accepted ally and her attitudes toward Uther began to change (especially if she healed him and it changed their dynamic). Then in the event these new ideas and hopes are dashed I think it would make sense for Morgana to be even more resentful and reactionary, but she would still have the opportunity to "take the high road" so to speak. If Morgana had become a sorceress ally to Camelot, having Merlin feeling eerie about how things are developing, I think that sense of things not being quite right would have been an intriguing source of suspense even as the situation should seem more hopeful.
