Now Me:

Like Entropy, I hadn't given Vernon much thought, except as a major 
barrier to Harry's happiness.

About an Umbridge-like comeuppance--perhaps Peeves makes house 
calls.  Can you imagine Uncle Vernon pursued down the street by a 
batch of his own drills poking him in the posterior, wielded by a 
little man that only he can see?  

"Make him stop, make him stop!" he screams, as all the neighbors 
stare at him and then pull the curtains . . .

Sweet, sweet revenge.
