I had forgotten the locket in Book 5! Must re-read it...
Not necessarily. He was a Death Eater, at least until he abandoned them, and so wouldn't necessarily turn up in any books likely to be in the Hogwarts Library- and if you didn't know, would you look for someone who intended to DESTROY part of Voldemort's soul in a list of Death Eaters?

The other interesting alternative theory - if (as events in HP6 imply) two wizards were required to do what RAB did, maybe RAB is 'R' And 'B'...?

But it said I, not We. And why have the initial 'a' when you could have an '&'. Also, it was clear that whoever wrote the note WANTED Voldemort to know who had destroyed one of his precious horcruxes.
And would it not be possible to bewitch a goblet so that it kept refilling and forcing you to drink it? It would be dark magic, certainly, but Regulus was with the bad guys for a long time. He'd know the spell if it existed.
