Valky:
Personally I think whichever poster postulated the possibility 
(twisted tongue ;-p) that the Room of Requirement may have been the 
mirror room in PS is brilliant and deserves a pat on the back. 
Additionally I expect Dumbledore entered the room because he 
*needed* to find Harry at the time, we know that at that time DD was 
especially concerned with protecting Harry as he confesses to that 
in OoP.

My only concern that this may be incorrect is a comment made by JKR 
in an interveiw which refers to the part of Hogwarts she would first 
visit could she go there.
(Sorry for the lack of linkage perhaps a kind colleague in posting 
will help me out with that.)
I cannot precisely remember if her quote states that Harry has not 
actually visited the room before, or whether it just says he doesnt 
know about it leaving the implication of it being there in PS open 
for possiblity. Of course if it *does* say he hasnt visited it then 
its not the mirror room. Which doesnt seem right to me, and in which 
case I would be inclined to believe that JKR has slipped in a 
paradox puzzle somewhat like the one Dobby uses in COS that the 
Mystery has nothing to do with Voldemort but instead with his alter 
ego. ie Harry in PS and Harry in GOF are not quite the same person 
he did Time-turn between those two points among other things. 
Ohoh I am tumbling down the rabbit hole now. Perhaps I should save 
that for another day.
