To avoid being a Karma Houdini, one doesn't have to repent, so much as not get punished in some form, and Cornelia did infact lose almost all of her family, only to watch their killer become a hero (we aren't sure she knows Schneizel was Geassed). Euphemia's death alone should take Cornelia far away from the Karma Houdini category. Whether or not these punishments are sufficient depends on the viewer, as I think she got off lighter than she should have, but I don't think it's fair to put her in the Houdini category.
I agree with you on Gino being a back-attack guy, though I don't really hold that against him, as it's more in keeping with being an efficient soldier, though I wouldn't consider him anything close to 'honorable' (something else I've seen people call him).
