Now me:

Mel, I agree totally.  (And I have a similar rant somewhere back in 
Yahoomort's vault.)  Not only is Fleur a teenager, her performance in 
the Tri-Wizard Tournament proved her to be the least competent of the 
four against dark arts.  Dumbledore would have to be scraping the 
bottom of the barrel to hire her, and I doubt he'd get that 
desperate.  

I'm hoping for a new character.  I envision a woman who on the 
surface is sweet and friendly, maybe even exaggeratedly so; but 
underneath is a treacherous, scheming backstabber.
