The Good Slytherin

I agree with many of the other posts replying to this subject. It is 
about time that we were introduced to a Slytherin with some moral 
fiber. Certainly they can't all be like Malfoy & his disciples.  I 
thought that perhaps it was the boy Harry noticed in OoP who had also 
seen a thestral.  

When Hagrid took his class to the Forbidden Forest to introduce them 
to thestrals, Harry, Luna, and one other boy who Harry thought was a 
Slytherin held up their hands when Hagrid asked who could see them.

I realize that the fact that this kid can see a thestral gives us no 
indication that he's a "good" slytherin, but I remember getting the 
distinct feeling when I first read that part, that JKR had dropped a 
very subtle clue by including that seemingly dismissable incident. 

Any thoughts?
