Katara's reason's for this were explained away in WAT; with Katara's line that she had felt that Zuko was in pain. Katara is a healer - her natural instict is to help people in pain. Also, the two were down there for a lot more than five minutes. The reason Katara softened up to Zuko was because of their shared loss of their mothers. Her relationship with him (such as it was for five short minutes) could best be compared to her relationship with Haru (and as we found out in the finale, Katara never did have any "secret thing" for Haru).

Who knows? Perhaps she simply didn't know at the time that the water could bring back the dead, and was saving it for something special where she was certain it would work. Perhaps she didn't have it at the time. Perhaps it was simply a direction of the story forced by the writers, who knew that the spirit oasis water was needed later, and simply left it out (in fairness to them, Lake Laogai and Crossroads of Destiny were done by different writers, so it makes sense that some of the details weren't perfectly seamless). Perhaps it was simply fate. My money's on the last one. Katara never used it on Jet for the same reason that Aang and Iroh's arrival stopped her from using it on Zuko - it would be needed for Aang. Indeed that may be yet another piece of shipping symbology inserted by the writers; just as both Jet and Zuko could have used the spirit water, so could they both have been the recipents of Katara's love. But in the end, Aang had the greater need. And the greater love.

thank god for that lol
it's all a good thing when characters are aware of the storyline xD
but your right, sometimes, you just gotta accept it.

If that isn't a prime example of the plot-bending ways of Zutarians, I don't know what is.

Your logic is faulty. If she thought to use it on Zuko, she would have thought to use it on Aang. Anyone who thinks that she cared about Zuko more than Aang needs to take a couple of eye and ear tests. It should be born in mind that "The Headband", while seemingly a long time after CoD for us, actually occured just over three weeks after the B2 finale. Since nothing major had happened prior that explains Katara's sudden obvious attraction to Aang, it only makes sense that she had been harbouring feelings for him for some time.
