Alice: 
I think the Animagus theory is very pleasing. I should tell the 
Tourist Board... (I wonder if the tiger and the Hungarian Horntail 
have made each other's acquaintance yet?) :)

But who could he/she be?
Oh, it's easy. It's got to Mark Evans. EVERYTHING comes down to Mark 
Evans. He is my favourite mystery... I will be severely disappointed 
if he's a red herring (instead of a tiger)... I await JKR's answer to 
the Poll Question - something like: yes, he is significant, but I 
can't tell you anything more yet! 
Dreaming on,
Alice
