No, not until you raised it.  But that could be the
reason Umbridge tried to fire Trelawney and the
reason Dumbledore wanted her to stay at Hogwarts. 
Maybe Dumbledore was protecting her from Veritaserum
or maybe from the Cruciatus Curse?  

I got the impression that Trelawney would have left had Dumbledore 
not intervened.  That means to me that she didn't think she was in 
grave danger if she left the Hogwarts grounds.

Merry Christmas, Everyone!
