Thoughts on the Mirror of Erised

Dumbledore takes so many precautions to protect the Sorcerer's 
Stone.  He sends Hagrid to get Fluffy to guard the trap door, he 
stations Devil's Snare underneath, Enchants a room full of flying 
keys, and also bewitches a chess board.  Yet, for the majority of the 
book, the Mirror of Erised, which holds the Sorcerer's Stone within, 
is kept in an empty spare classroom where a first year student is 
able to stumble upon it one night.  I always found this a little 
strange.  If anyone else has any thoughts on the subject I would be 
glad to hear them.
