Well we know a couple of things, thanks to etymology studies on Harry 
Potter characters and Jo's interviews.
1.  We know the name Krum is a name that harkens back to the 
establishment of the first Bulgarian Empire.
2.  We know Krum will be back because Jo stated, prior to book 5's 
release: "Yes he will be back but not soon."

Of course, we at hermionegranger.us believe that Hermione is 
descended from royal blood as well, explaining in great detail the 
Krum-Granger association.
