Yeah, Qui-gon was a rebel of a sort, but he mainly kept to the jedi code. His defiance towards the council wasn't out of hatred, emotion, or that he thought he might be better or anything like that. He just had a different view on some things, but they were still within the best interests of the Jedi, and it's heritage. Anakin was mad because Obi-wan, and the Jedi council would not let him do what he wanted to do.Thats another reason why anakin went down, and Palpatine was there for him to cry on his shoulder. This works the very same as if one was in the military. When your the low man on the totum poll, you do what your told.

As far as The Master/Padawan realtion between Obi-wan, Dooku and yoda. Every Padawan starts out with Yoda before they are let go with another Master to develop their skill. Yoda teaches the Padawan to control their emotion, and use the force to guide them through their choices on the job, and in daily life. Anakin had too many of the wrong people around him that influenced him. He should have kept to the Jedi code and sacraficed everything if he were to become a serious Jedi, and hold the respect of the council. Yoda even told Luke to sacrafice his friends, and stay on Dagoba, and complete his training. He was warned that he could have destroyed all for which Han and leia had fought, and suffered for it. These are the kind of skills Yoda teached to his padawans. These are the things that Anakin had such a hard time controliing, and eventually failed to do.

Of course this is just my opinion.
