Alas, I agree, but I have a strong feeling that the opposite may well 
be true.  JKR, in an interview, stated that there was definately 
going to be a female DADA teacher in the future. (one of the 
reference interviews off of the HP Lexicon) I can't help but hope 
that she'll be cool (good feminist message) and that the evil woman 
will be someone else.

I think this may be referring to Mrs. Lestrange. She stated in the 
pensieve that LV would release them as soon as he regained power and 
reward them greatly.  Also, LV references the big gap of DEs as his 
faithful servants who did not deny him. (Strangely Christ-like {Peter 
and the three denials...hrmm}) I have a feeling that if Fudge doesn't 
get rid of the Dementors and keep them from allying themselves with 
LV, they'll be convinced to release the DEs in Azkaban and, well, 
that gives me the cobblywobbles. *shiver* Do they have muggle 
Patronus protection systems to put into a home security system?
