There's a second part to a Deja Vu phenomenom that often gets overlooked... the feeling that you've had this experience before is coupled with the ability to predict what will happen next based on the 'memory'. Next time you get deja vu, try to "remember" what happens next. It's scarily accurate after you willingly try it once or twice. My overall hypothesis is somewhat inline with yours (although I don't have nearly the expertise to properly examine these things) - that somehow the brain 'skips' filing the memory properly, and the experience being recalled milliseconds later as "now" is being mis-remembered as "past". Very cool machine our brain.
