I know Leliana's "resurrection" irks a lot of people but honestly it never bothered me. Between comic books and cartoons and Gods only know how many movies and books with characters that only SEEMINGLY die, only to show up later, it just isn't something that has ever meant much to me at all. It's not something I really love to see in fiction, since it's such an overdone trope, but it happens so often I guess I'm just inured to it. Between that and the fact that there are tons of documented cases of people believe to be dead who turn out to be alive, it's just not something that really even pings on my radar, the idea that the Warden could have simply THOUGHT that Leliana was dead and left her as such. Morrigan gets more or less the same treatment; the primary difference is that her "death" is more obviously shown to be ambiguous, since we see her fall through the mirror, but don't actually get to stand and watch her breathe her last, as it were.
I do wish that Bioware had handled this a little differently, mind. I always figured that somewhere along the way they had decided to keep the character around and just dropped the ball on this technical detail. Since it is easily explained enough as the Warden simply leaving Leliana for dead while not realizing she was still alive, it's one of the few plot holes that never concerned me overmuch.
Don't really understand why people think she was LITERALLY resurrected from the dead, though, by the Sacred Ashes, rather than never having died in the first place. But then the Ashes themselves were always a more contentious issue for me.
