Well, a good possibility is the whole idea where Harry may CHOOSE to
sacrifice his own life to save the rest of the word from Voldemort's
horrors, but may, by other magical circumstances that Harry typically
does not understand until the speech afterwards, survive anyhow. This
way, his character is preserved by doing the right thing & willing to
give his life, without the media horror of Harry actually dying.
It would probably feel like a cop-out to many people, but unless she
handles it in an incredibly spiritual manner to make things
feel "right", I don't think Harry will die.
