Exactly!
Actualy, Naruto is full of elements we already read in the harry potter series. In the starting chapters I was amazed at the similarity between orochimaro & voldemort. Both used evil powers; both were obsessed with the idea of immortality; and both used snakes as weapon or emblem and a lot more. And now the similarity between madara and our beloved lord can't escape our notice!
I don't know if Kishi was inspired by Rowling (i didn't see anything about that on the net), but the refrences are too much to be incidental.
As for madara being cautious, not a bad idea! Maybe he is the only one who fully knows the potential of kyubi, so he's just waiting for the right moment to launch his assault.
