I've read in some articles that Arthur has a secret agenda, and after what they did with Peter Pan, everything is possible. I would not go so far as to call King Arthur a villian, but he definitely has his own agenda. It is very possible that Arthur has been corrupted by his half of Excalibur. Merlin basically told Emma, that the road to Hell is paved with good intentions.

It seems that many people forget that the tradional King Arthur, while an honorable man, had a bit of a dark side. That dark side eventually led to his downfall, and the downfall of Camelot.
