I like this concept alot. However, I feel that Lucius is the kind of man that likes to play a beta role. Voldemort referred to him as his 'slippery friend' and that's exactly what he is: sly and unwilling to put his neck on the line for anybody. (Except maybe his wife and son). Whilst I agree on the fact that Lucius would undeniably try to sweeten Harry up, I don't think he'd go as far as to try and 'win' if you like, Harry over. That would be too much of a stretch on his part, and there wouldn't be much of a motif to do so. The Malfoys are (I'm assuming) well known in social circle since they are virtually pureblood aristocracy, so Lucius wouldn't need the 'fame' side of associating with Harry, and he didn't yet know in the first book what Voldemort's plans were for Harry.
