Especially odd was that his corpse was then buried in a coffin rather than hauled to my refuse pile next to all of the other goblins I had slain.

That's normal.  Dwarves bury all dwarves, friend and foe.

Dwarves bury dwarves for the sake of it, they may be raised by goblins but they are still dwarves, and dead dwarves should be in tombs. Though any friendly humans or elves(Can those be friendly?) from caravans or otherwise will simply by tossed into the refuse pit to become bolts for the marksdwarves to practise with.

I'd suggest not letting them go, because they may then return in a later siege, and take up your cage traps again. Besides that, it's not as fun as having them ripped apart by war dogs.
I suggest the arena, just remember not to set them against goblins, since they are goblin allies. And make sure they don't get ripped into too many pieces, or it will take ages to get it all buried.

Besides that, I like the idea of drowning chambers like mentioned by Slogo, but for bonus points, make the wall in between them of glass so they can see what they did to their 'friend'.

I think I'm not making any real points, so I'll just go sleep. (Note to self: no forum posting at 1:30 am)

What kind of statues are your masons making, that you think they have "maximum exposure"?
(Full frontal ones, apparently.  With very short beards.)

Give them a prison and treat them according to the Geneva convention.  They are dwarves after all.
