It would explain why Tremaine has all these connections to the Rapunzel story and why she has the Witch locked up. It also works with the theory of the Witch being the mastermind behind the curse.  Actually; not really. It does not explain a lot of points like: All these points can be easily explained by "Tremaine = Rapunzel", but not by "Rapunzel = Witch". Their past is that Tremaine kept Rapunzel locked in her tower
 * If Tremaine only trapped the Witch in the first place, what is their past together? They know each other since a very long time.
 * What's the connection between Tremaine and Hook?
 * How Drizella would go to Rapunzel's tower among all places just to get magic? Why would she team up with the Witch?
 * If Rapunzel is the Witch, then who's the Witch who trapped Rapunzel in the first place?

Tremaine is the person who trapped Rapunzel and Rapunzel is the one who trapped Alice so the "trapping" thing started with Tremaine (this is if Alice is his daughter and Rapunzel/The Witch is the mother)

She teams up with the Witch/Rapunzel because they both want revenge on Lady Tremaine

Lady Tremaine is the witch who trapped her
