"More than Jack could ever be, Ianto is our Queer Warrior. " Well said. It bugs me a great deal that so many people are only seeing him as a gay character who died! He went out as a hero, by his lover's side (after fighting to rescue him), knowing he'd probably die but going ahead with things. As sad as I was to watch it, I thought that those folks are really missing appreciating Ianto as a person...an intelligent person who is most definitely not perfect (as much of a con-man as Jack was/is), who struggles, and who ultimately chose love and loyalty.
