I know this sounds outlandish but it would tie up several unexplained things.

In a few ways it makes sense, but in many more it doesn't. Why would Volemort make Harry contain a portion of his own soul? It would've been a very stupid thing of him to do. This means that in order to fulfil the prophecy in the way he wants to, he's going to have to destroy part of his own soul, thus making him even less immortal.
Voldemort needed Harry's name in the Goblet of Fire so he would be transported to the graveyard and Harry's blood could be used to restore Voldemort to power. He could have used any wizard who hated him, but he used Harry so he would be immune to the magic that Lily instilled upon Harry when she died.
Voldemort wants to complete the prophecy himself. He wants to have the satisfaction of killing Harry. If you look at it from Voldemort's viewpoint, Harry has caused him a great deal of trouble. I don't think he contains part of Voldemort's soul, he just wants to be the one to kill Harry Potter.

Voldemort tried to destroy Harry with a killing curse and failed. This is why Harry's scar hurts and why they are connected. Voldemort found out about the prophecy from Snape and chose to act upon it. Voldemort's actions caused them to be connected. It just doesn't make sense for Harry to be a horcrux, but maybe Rowling is betting on that too. Who knows.
