I agree with @m52go about keeping values the same.

You refer to the "future trade" option, right? I only see that the buyer can do that. Once the buyer has sent the funds the seller can only confirm it, not confirming is breach of contract and leads to loss of his funds but he cannot avoid that his BTC got send to the buyer.

Another important issue is that we need to keep a minimal part of the deposit to return to any trader to keep some incentive to accept the mediated payout result. If one trader does not get anything because he violated the protocol he might decide to not cooperate to accept the mediated payout as he has nothing to lose anymore. If a certain part of the deposit always goes back to any trader in the mediated payout suggesting then some incentive stays. When it comes to arbitration the arbitrator will not pay out that min. refund, so a not accepting trader risks to lose that amount.
