Holy crap, I didn't know who Yakone was until you mentioned him, then I went and looked him up and it fits my theory almost perfectly!! Awesome!!!! I can't believe I didn't remember that little aside from the show! Course, then again, Yakone sounds more like a water tribe name...

I know this is all just guessing, its just the guessing that seems most likely to me. If Yakone had been defeated by Aang taking his bending away, it makes sense that he would wait in the shadows until a younger and more naive Avatar took over that he could more easily defeat and manipulate. The Mask has to be hiding something, after all, why not his identity? He may or may not be Yakone, there's really no way to know at this point, but Bryke wouldn't drop his name in for no reason.
