Um, I see a slight problem with this scenario: don't forget that Sirius
is still in hiding from the MoM, and even though Dumbledore doesn't give
much on Fudge's opinion right now, he cannot accept an Azkaban escapee
in his staff. Apart from a few people including the trio and perhaps the
old crowd, the wizarding world still thinks that Sirius is a dangerous
murderer. The parents of the students would object, and I think even
more vehemently than they would have objected had they known that
Lupin was a werewolf.

I can't see Fleur Delacour as a DADA teacher either. As much as I would
like to see a woman in this position, I hope it won't be her. She did very
poorly in the Triwizard Tournament, and I don't think that her male students
would learn much because they would spend the lessons gaping at her.
