According to my information, Cassini itself has proven you wrong.

"Too dangerous to fly through the rings — the spacecraft would never survive"

Cassini flew through the rings on it's insertion orbit.

There isn't enough gravity to make the rings dense enough to be destructive. Remember, they're held in place by tiny moons.

What I mean is: Cassini is out there, and until it runs out of power or data to send (the former being much more likely than the later) scientists will continue to suck every bit of data they can before thinking of something like that.

It will fly within 50km of the moon's surface to see what it can discover.

Scientists think that where there is liquid water, there is life.

Bacteria that survived on a camera for years on a Apollo camera was brought back to life and revived.

Could we send a spacecraft through the ring and get samples of Enceledian life?
