Not that I support it, but it isn't something I'd put past Kojima. Kojima has cited Kubrick as an inspiration. Kubrick put stuff in his films that took decades for fans to find. Before VHS and DVD where you could pause at just the right moment.

It wouldn't be totally disregarded, but I would still consider it dubious. It's such a random event. I feel like, if Kojima was going to hide something in such a hard way to find, it would have to be something more substantial, something that gives more information.

It wouldn't be just a teaser like this is. I feel it would more blatantly hint at Gray Fox than just a random camera angle lining up Snake's e-cigar with his face while he just so happens to be wearing a sneaking suit that resembles the MGS1-style suits and exoskeletons, as well as being at just the right time of night to resemble the silhouette.
