There's no way of knowing that the blackening around her eyes was the photosynthesis, You have to remember, The End had the spots on his skin not around his eyes. Photosynthesis  is an obsorbsion method. and if his eyes are in a scope, Bugged out or not, then he will not be able to obsorb the sunlight. Now I am not discounting that Quiet could be related to The End. I had the same thought. But the blackening around her eyes suggests something else. Maybe an enhanced vision or focus state where she drowns out everything around her and focuses only on the person in the cross-hairs. An extreme Tunnel Vision. Considering she is deprived of the ability to make words (Probably because her tongue got cut out. My best guess) she could drown out all the sounds around her. I have no proof, but from what I saw it just doesn't fit the photosynthesis. Though I could be wrong (God knows it has happened more then a couple hundred times). She could just be a mute sniper who is just gonna get tossed to the wayside like The End was after his battle. The only two members of The Cobra Unit that get mentioned beyond Snake Eater are: The Boss, and The Sorrow. Hell, The Sorrow makes an active cameo in MGS4. You could also argue The Boss makes a cameo too, but I am not counting memory scenes from peace walker, or the A.I.

Again I could be wrong, But who knows. Kojima LOVES to keeo us guessing. So anything is possible. So I can say that the theory is plausible, but I cannot agree with it until I see more details on the character.
