How about the possibility that Hebrews was later independently added to 
Paul's letter collection in the single collection (10 or 13) model?  I am
intrigued by the suggestions of David Trobisch, PAUL'S LETTER COLLECTION:
Tracing the Origins (Minneapolis: Fortress Press, 1994), who holds that
the original collection of Paul's letters Rom-1Cor-2Cor-Gal was actually
compiled by Paul, himself.  After his lifetime, as parallels to other letter
collections in the ancient world show (e.g. Cicero's letters), other
letters, both genuine (e.g. Phil.) and spurious (e.g. Heb.), were added to
the Pauline corpus.
