About Gawyn, because he openly went against her orders not to rescue her. She admits, though, that she loves him and thinks that he will be the man at her side (and actually it seems that he already wants to follow her everywhere like a Warder). Thus, it would surprise me very much, if Egwene wouldn't bond Gawyn soon after she became the Amyrlin and had their talk about a Warder's obedience. I really don't expect a longer conflict between Egwene and Gawyn to settle this. Would seem tedious.
The may thing that makes me think otherwise is that if you're right there was no reason not to solve this issue in TGS right away, in the climax of the book.... One short scene and this was done, and would have fitted very well the book's climax. Instead, Brandon/Jordan planted the seeds of problems between the two.
That's why I suspect there's more story to tell than just "I forgive you, now get on your knees that I bond you".
As for tedious... well, that's really no surprise with Gawyn's story line.
