That is an interesting take on it.  I always envisioned Harry standing up 
for Snape and saving Snape's life (technically paying him back for that time 
in SS/PS when Snape saved Harry).   I have also had this preminition that 
the Dursleys will be endangered and Harry will save them with magic.  This 
way they won't think magic is so bad.  However, as many have told me, this 
is wishful thinking.
