I'm sure you're right that Harry is not a metamorphagus any more than
he'll become an animagus like his father (JKR's remark that he won't
have time to learn transfiguration on that level seems to apply here,
too, especially since he doesn't seem to have any natural aptitude
beyond growing back his hair). And why would JKR need another
metamorphagus when she already has Tonks, who will surely have a
larger (and I hope more interesting) role in future books? I'd like to
see her turn into Bellatrix, myself--with the real Bellatrix properly
stunned and tied to prevent her escape. A little memory modification
courtesy of Mad Eye Moody would probably be necessary if they decided
to let her go.
