Exactly what I was thinking.  However, I think my idea and the 
designer's (and possible Sigune's) is influenced by having seen 
Rickman as Obadiah Slope in the Barchester Chronicles - a clerical 
gent and much nastier than Snape could ever hope to be.  I have to 
agree with Sigune that I can't see Severus in the throes of the 
tender passion. Sad, really.
