I have a theory that somewhere down the line, Peter Pettigrew's resentment
of Voldemort's treatment of him, combined with his (currently deeply buried)
guilt at betraying his friends, and his owing Harry Potter his life, will
make him turn on Voldemort.  I just watched "Return of the Jedi" on video
last night, and that made me think of this.  For that matter, this could
make a good fanfic.

As for wizards' clothes, I think that the most traditionalist wizards (like
Archie at the Quidditch World Cup) wear little or nothing under their robes,
but the younger, less traditional ones do wear other things beneath the
robe, whether it's Muggle clothing of some sort or something unique to
wizards.  As for why they wear uniforms under their robes in the movie---who
knows?  Maybe they were afraid of setting the Morality Police off somehow,
or maybe they just didn't think things through as thoroughly as we do on
this list.
