I don't think it should. I'd be interested in seeing where he goes or what he does afterwards, but it seems to me that even the possibility of Daud's death shows that the Outsider has decided he isn't interesting anymore whether he lives or not, and is therefore less worth preserving than Corvo. Even if that's not the case, it would put the two storylines into conflict. Something like Miami Hotline, which is essentially a game where reality barely exists anyway, can do that easily enough, but Dishonored puts a high amount of importance on the choices you make. I'm still waiting to see whether they're going to let the choices made in the original campaign affect Daud's storyline, or if they're going to have the 'canon' version of Corvo doing things instead (it seems from the advertisements that that's high-chaos Corvo, but you never know).

If it goes to the Flooded District to the point where Corvo invades, basically two things happen: we have to sit around for a while doing nothing while Corvo slaughters/evades our men, and then we get told that our choices in the original campaigns didn't actually matter.

Also, we get stuck into an impossible fight.

Really, the only way I think this could work is if we get handed an alternate storyline, where Daud defeats Corvo.
