Potioncat:
JKR said DD wrote the commentary about 18 months before he died. It's 
unknown if he intended it to be published, or was writing for his own 
amuzement.


I think Pippin believes DD intended Snape to find the book and his 
commentary. I'm not so sure...if only because JKR didn't write the 
stories until afterwards, and the commentary was written even later.
