I'm kind of hoping (hope hope hope) that it is the crystal of an ex-Emperor's Hand that held a special place in Luke's heart.

It's been established in Star Wars canon that objects are not good or evil.

Doubtful, considering Vader's hand and saber went down the reactor shaft when Luke sliced it off. I doubt he had time to do down there and retrieve it before the explosion. Unless it was another crystal Vader had on him as a back up.

They will always find a way to manipulate what was seen before... Seems like a job all in itself in Hollywood..

In the context of the rest of the pages for Luke, the "recovered jedi crusader pendant" sounds like just another of the artifacts that Luke found in the ruins of the first Jedi temple.
My guess is that it is just a call-back to ancient history from the KOTOR age, when there were whole armies of Sith, and this is just a fragment of a red crystal from some ancient Sith warrior's lightsaber, collected as a trophy and turned into a pendant.
Instead of it being some weird connection to Vader, I would think it is just something Luke found and chose to wear, perhaps as a reminder to himself that Jedi were defeating the Sith thousands of years before he ever existed, and that he was merely the last of the Jedi to accomplish the same thing.

I really like the inclusion of these kinds of things. One thing I always wanted to see, but the old EU never really got into, was Luke going off to recover Jedi artifacts, teaching materials, etc. I think from time to time they mentioned Luke finding a holocron or something, but you never got to hear the story involved.

I wonder if that is how Luke was masking or shutting off the force. By surrounding his light side self with the dark side energy of a sith crystal, palpatine's compass, and the dark hole on the island. There is a lot of talk of balance in the film and that would be another way to achieve it.
Just a thought.

At best, this would be a loose connection to Revan when he was still a Jedi, rather than the crystal from his sith lightsaber.
Even then, this theory only exists due to it being labeled "Recovered Jedi Crusader Pendant" in the TLJ Visual Dictionary, and the Revanchists also being known as the "Jedi Crusaders": http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Revanchist
It is really just speculation based on the phrase "Jedi Crusader", which is pretty thin. Since this temple on Ahch-To would pre-date KOTOR, and this is an ancient artifact found there, I can't see how it would actually have any connection at all to Revan.
It's still cool though!
