[HPforGrownups] Harry's Wand Conjures the Dark Mark - Significance?

On the issue of the playback of Harry's wand:


Ed (moi) said:

One possibility:  If, as has been theorized around here lately, Harry is
made to defend himself against accusations of his dark tendencies, the fact 
that his wand conjured the Dark Mark might be used as evidence against him.

To which Ed merely replies:   it wouldn't be necessary in a WW where 
everybody believes everybody else.  But, if the future holds the Dumbledore 
"side" as opposed to the "Fudge" side, the witnesses might be split and only 
have their words to back them up.  The courtroom would be full of 
"Objection!  Hearsay!"

The wand replay would be considered more objective evidence.
