As part of the story, I don't think JKR is planning to have Harry 
killed; also I think she looks on him as a son.  But if people keep 
badgering her to write more than the seven books, she might change 
her mind and kill off Harry at the end.  Of course, this might not 
be enough.  When Arthur Conan Doyle got tired of Sherlock Holmes he 
tried to kill him off, but fans made him write more stories.  If the 
annoyance of fans persuades JKR to kill off little Harry, she might 
just end up having to write other books set in the Potterverse.  So 
she might as well not bother killing him off.
