But I think there is symbolism intended here as well. It is one thing to have the Ring in Frodo's outside pocket and attached to his belt and another to have it literally hanging about his neck, nestled against his skin, on the inside so to speak.

Truly awesome point, there. I can dig it ::thumbs up::
About the whole "what makes a bearer" thing, I mostly agree with Hookbill's list,

Sauron, Isildor, Deagul, Smeagul, Bilbo, Frodo and Sam to a lesser extent as he felt forced to take the ring for his own.

Except I don't think I would count Deagol because he only had it for a couple of minutes, and I think Sam would not be "to a lesser extent" because he showed remarkable bravery and resolve in taking the Ring.
