But Mary won't have anything to do with it, IMHO.

Ultimately, everything good comes from God. Even our cooperation with God's grace is a grace. That is constant Church teaching. But in a more proximate sense, and to use everyday language, we say that "Mary always leads us to Christ."

If you feel more comfortable with "The Holy Spirit, operating through Mary, leads us to Christ," that's perfectly OK. In fact, it is Catholic teaching.

No, Aquinasfan, I don't believe the Holy Spirit operates through Mary at all. As you can see, I'm not a Catholic and Mary is a Catholic ideal, not a protestant one. I believe she was the mother of Jesus Christ and that was her main purpose. The Holy Spirit will baptize the Muslims in the Holy Spirit without her help.
