What I want to know about boggarts is what would happen if you faced 
one and your greatest fear was not something physical.  What if you 
had a fear of closed spaces or of being alone? What if your greatest 
fear was someone finding out you were gay?  Or perhaps Ron Weaslys 
fear of spiders will be replaced with the fear of Hermione and the 
rest of the school finding out how he feels about her?
Just a thought.
