Gadfly McLellyn:
see my post "79480" Why the Veil? & Harry's Power for one theory on 
what Harry's power could be.

I think too that DD feels when LV took Harry's blood it made him more 
vulnerable and human.  I think there is a little hint of it after he 
rises:

GOF Chapter 33 The Death Eaters, US paperback version page 646:

"Listen to me, reliving family history..." he (LV) said 
quietly, "why, I am growing quite sentimental...But look, Harry!  My 
true family returns..."

LV sentimental?  Hmmmm, could be why DD had hope in his eyes.
