"I  think one of the things (clues from Book 2) is Professor Lockhart and his memory loss. He
knows a lot of information. He's stolen many peoples memories. They told
him their stories and then he wiped their memories of them. Now he's the
only one who knows that information....
What if he remembers some important piece of information?...
There's also the subject of his books. He put alot of those stolen stories
in them. JKR made a point of having Molly reading one of them in those
dreaded cleaning scenes. ..."

Wow!  This is good.  I've been re-reading all of the series and have felt something hanging over my head, untied threads.  Lockhart's reappearance was a surprise to me too and yes, I too expect some relevent involvement from him.  Like you, I picked up on Molly's reading of his books.  One thing that really sticks in my head is the real significance of House Elves.  Have the distinct feeling that we haven't heard the whole story; remember Molly was cooped up with Kreacher.  And, if I'm not mistaken, Doby just "pops up" at the Dursleys(that was Book 2, wasn't it?) with no prior introduction or background.  Could it be that Lockhart's books contain some pertinent info on House Elves and Molly was trying to remember something?  Another clue that I picked up (actually in Book 4) when Harry, Ron, and Hermione were in the kitchen; Hermione mentioned Doby's freedom and he, Doby, clearly did not want to discuss the subject.  Yes, seems like something is indeed cooking.  I must get Book 2
 back and search for more clues.  Anyone else have more ideas?
