Now me:

I also think something to do with Lily will play a role in 
Voldemort's final defeat, and I think that "something" has to do with 
the gorgeous green eyes Harry inherited from her.

Here's a snip from an interview in support of this theory:

BBC: "Now, can I ask you: are there any special wizarding powers in 
your world that depend on the wizard using their eyes to do 
something? Bit like..."

JKR: "Why do you want to know this?"

BBC: "I just vaguely wondered."

JKR: "Why?"

BBC: "Well because everyone always goes on about how Harry's got Lily 
Potter's eyes?"

JKR: "Aren't you smart? There is something, maybe, coming about that. 
I'm going to say no more. Very clever."

So my guess is that Harry's inner wandless magical power will somehow 
be directed through his Lily eyes and will contribute to Voldemort's 
final defeat.  Along with the fatally flawed recorporation potion 
that relied on Harry's blood.
