Kawaki being a student of Naruto makes sense, because how else would they introduce a character that is believable enough and powerful enough to do the things we speculate he has done. Or maybe they will just make him a character that Boruto saves and than Kawaki turns to be a double or quadruple agent and badum tss plots, plots everywhere.

PS. Thinking about it if Kawaki turns to be a student of Naruto that goes evil that will make him have a similar story to Sarutobi and Jiraya with their students (Orochimaru and Nagato), creating a whole new circle of Hate. Lol, not just Saru and Jiraya, but Minato and Kakashi. All Oro, Nagato, Sasuke and Obito were students of shinobis(or more hokages) with dreams of world peace. Guess what Kawaki wants and what Naruto wants. And now think why it seemed like Kawaki was a bit personal with Naruto. Him killing one of the nicest guys in the world had more than just a simple reason(Yes, he was the symbol of all shinobies in a sense, but still).

And if you think about it, Most senseis were killed or almost killed by their students. Saru by his evil student, Oro. Jiraya by Nagato. Minato, because of Obito. Oro by Sasuke. Kakashi was almost killed by Sasuke too. So Kawaki's interest in killing Naruto....

Boruto knowing Kawaki, Kawaki wanting to destroy the Shinobi world, killing Naruto, it all seems more unclearly related than what it we seen. Kawaki's direct disinterest to the Shinobi world could have even came from Naruto. I mean, probably an tragic situation happened, where Naruto had to do something for the cost of world peace. And with that, Kawaki might have died, been imprisioned, missing. It would explain why he loaths the new Shinobi world. Basically, an Uchiha Sasuke type of event. It's surely revenge.

And as you also pointed out. If Kawaki was a student, then he'll surely have the reasonable strength and powers needed to defeat his sensei. And he'll also know Naruto's weakpoints. And one more interesting thing from this is, Naruto won't exactly fight with full power if Kawaki was so close to him. Think, it'll be even more pf reason, Naruto won't try to kill his student, while his student knows his weakness and is strong enough to closely match him. It's a reasonably enough of a set, for Kawaki to kill Naruto.

And in my opinion, if they're just gonna pop up students of Jonin Naruto, then this will be more reasonable and way more interesting than just some random characters being shown.

Lol, I guess, I got too much into this theory.
