What does seem more and more crucial is Harry and Snape's 
relationship.  They will have to both come to terms with the past 
and the present as part of the resolution of the story.


Cornflower replies:
Oh, absolutely! If Harry had issues with Snape before Sirius death, 
what's it going to be like now? He will have to work with a man who 
despised the man Harry is mourning deeply. How far can forgiveness 
extend? If love is a power magic, forgiveness must also be, but will 
Harry be able to get past his anger (possibly the dark side of him 
that was released through V presence in his mind?) to that kind of 
magic? It's going to get very interesting psychologically in the 
next two books I think!
