Very interesting, Alison - and it would also fit with Sirius wanting Harry 
to come live with him after he thought he was going to be proven innocent 
of having betrayed James and Lily.  It would be nice to think that Harry's 
father is still alive and could be reunited with him.

The only thought I have, though, is if they did somehow switch bodies, 
wouldn't James still retain his training and powers, rather than taking on 
Sirius'?  And if that's the case, wouldn't James, regardless of what body 
he's in, turn into a stag when taking his Animagi form?  I don't know how 
that would work....
