Oops! Sorry about the oversight. It wasn't intentional.

I guess we do disagree.  :-) I don't see it as a "loose end" at all. Life is full of situations that seem unresolved (such as having insane parents), and I think this is one of the more realistic aspects of the Potterverse. 

Don't get me wrong - I'd love to see Neville with a loving family. I just don't think it will happen.
