Oh I agree completely. I think she's probably a pretty powerful witch (and
failing that she could just give Voldemort a piece of her mind, after
raising those kids I'm sure she could cow one megalomaniac <g>) I really
wanted to know more about her after the end of GoF and loved the scenes with
her in OoP - even if I did want to shake some sense into her at some points.
I always suspected that at some point JKR was going to move her beyond the
2d role that she had occupied in the early books - and now we've seen the
beginnings  of that. Same as I always wanted Minerva to show us what she was
made of - and she did. That woman truly rocks. :)
