I think the dragon riding would seal the deal for a lot of skeptics.

And yes, Jon will find out some important things about his parentage in the Winterfell crypts. I believe that when Jon first finds out/is told about R+L=J, he's going to be in disbelief and still think he's Ned's son, since Ned would never lie to him or betray him. I compare it to when Harry Potter was in disbelief and angry at Dumbledore strictly using him as a 'sacrifice' but it was much more than that and the conversation dream sequence while he was 'dead' made him realize his purpose.

Not sure if GRRM would take that route but perhaps Jon will have some sort of dream sequence/Weirwood net Bran deal while he's still unconscious about Ned and actually have a conversation with Ned about his parentage and why Ned had to keep it secret: to protect Jon from Robert because Jon was his blood nephew and fulfill his promise to Lyanna.

I doubt it, since it's the opposite of what Dumbledore planned to do with Harry. Ned was his father to protect Jon from Robert's wrath and had to make it as convincing as possible. Jon will certainly realize it and be grateful for Ned putting his head on the line for it. Although he may initially have a problem with it when he first finds out, in the end Jon will always see Ned as his true father and love him for the sacrifices he made for him.
