Very good point, that's definitely something I'd want avoided at all costs. While a rescue Finn plot could be done well, as a nice excuse to have all the people who grow to love Finn throughout the movies come together to help him (like Han's rescue in ROTJ), there is also a risk it could be handled extremely badly with seriously gross results.
Honestly, I don't mind if it happens, I don't mind if it doesn't, it's not the plot idea that made me reply intially. I'm just not keen on Rey being called a Mary Sue - that's why I ended up in this thread, because I didn't see the logic in 'Rey saves Finn in the same way Finn rescued Rey' = 'Rey is a total Mary Sue'.
