Now me: 

Wow, what a great theory! I thought briefly of Dumbledore being 
an animagus, but I didn't see how it could fit in. But DD 
transforming into a wasp is perfect, as we know that 
Dumbledore's name means "bumblebee". I know a wasp isnt 
the exact same thing as a bumblebee, but it's pretty close, and 
maybe JKR thought it would be too much a give-away if he was 
an actual bee.
