Harry's Scar

I have been re-reading PS/SS and came across something that peaked my 
interest. When McGonagal, DD and Hagrid are looking at baby Harry one 
last time, McGonagal asks DD if he can fix Harry's scar. He replies 
that even if he could, he would not as scars can be very useful. 

We know the scar causes extreme pain when LV is up to something, so I 
guess you could say the pain is a bit of a tip off to Harry, but it 
hasn't really been helpful in thwarting or avoiding LV.  So will the 
scar be helpful in some other way to Harry in the future?  I am not 
sure if this has been discussed before. If so, I apologize, and would 
like to hear others comments.
