What do you think we shall hear about Umbridge in Book 6?  I, for 
one, will be terribly disappointed if JKR lets the whole thing drop.  
She introduced several dramatic plot twists (particularly the use of 
the Dementors and the Blood Quill) that really beg to be wrapped up 
with at least a brief mention - perhaps in the context of Fudge's 
ouster.

It is interesting that she specifically talks about the scars from 
Harry's detentions remaining, although faintly.  It would be very 
amusing to see someone such as Molly Weasley or McGonagall react to 
the story behind those scars.

Josephine now:
I am inclined to say that we have heard the last of Dolores, except 
perhaps in passing (like Gilderoy L in St Mungos). JKR gave us sweet 
justice at the end of OOP just seeing Dolores suffer in the hospital 
wing and also with her departure from Hogwarts. This, for me, wrapped 
it up quite nicely. The only scary irony would be if she was indeed 
appointed as MOM. But I see that highly unlikely as Fudge is very 
intent on keeping his image intact, despite his latest blunders, and 
would be loathe to cast someone such as Umbridge in this role 
following her embarrassment as the acting head of Hogwarts. He may 
make an example of her... reminiscent of Crouch and Winky no?
