Here in lies the problem, he didn't muck the cards. you wrote "We both table our hands, him not realizing he has teh straight".

Most places, "Cards Speak" the fact that he tabled the hand and the dealer mucked it(or almost mucked it) i feel that the pot is his. If he tabled his cards, then he HIMSELF through the cards in the muck then i feel the pot is yours. He does not have to technically announce his hand, he merely has to show it and the pot goes to the best hand.

The 2 things i think you are stuck on is that the dealer accidentally mucked his hand, when she should not have and he ALSO did not know he had a straight. If he turned his hand over and said "I have a straight" but the dealer mucked his hand anyway would you make the same argument.

Unfortunately i don't think that not knowing you have the winning hand on a tabled hand loses the right to the pot.

Stupid on his part but its his pot.
