I think we are unnecessarily limiting ourselves in regards to the 
graveyard scene.  Just because Voldemort names *some* of the DEs, 
that doesn't mean there are not others present.  Harry even thinks 
to himself (p.660, ch.34 GOF) "...All he had learned there was the 
Disarming Spell, expelliarmus...and what use would it be to deprive 
Voldemort of his wand, even if he could, when he was surrounded by 
Death Eaters, outnumbered by at least thirty to one?"

I think JKR left plenty of room for other DEs to be present and we 
just don't know about it yet.
