...I think you should add one that may be the most
important one (not necesarily in the shippy sense, but as a
foreshadow of what may happen in Book Six/Seven)... and is the
powerful spell that Harry achieves when he uses Hermione's wand.

Sorry, excuse my ignorance... but I don't recall a time when Harry
ever uses Hermione's wand, more or less a time when he achieves
a "powerful spell" from using her wand... in the books or in the
third movie, could you elaborate?
In the movie a scene popped into my mind when I read your theory, is
the scene in the movie where SuperGirl!Hermione whips out *her* wand
and blast's open Sirius's jail door... I personally don't see
this as foreshadowing for anything...in case you haven't noticed...
I really didn't like the way the Hermione or well, the trio, were
portrayed in the movie, Ron, and to less extent Harry, where
portrayed as total idiots, and Hermione was portrayed as the most
incredible SuperGirl there is, that made you wonder how Harry and
Ron could even tie their own shoes without Hermione's help... the
feeling I got when I watched the movie was that it would have so
much easier if Hermione just sat Harry down told him not to hurt
himself... while she goes off and saves buckbeak and Sirius... it
was just annoying. Anyway back to the point... I chalk up
Hermione's "opening Sirius jail door" to that she is portrayed as
supergirl. Its no secrete that Hermione's character is Steve Kloves
(the writer) favorite... it has been an annoying trend in his Harry
Potter scripts... always giving Hermione "the good lines" from the
book, having her do the "cool" things. For example during the second
movie when we are told about mudbloods in the book its Ron that
explains everything... in the movie its Hermione, in the third book
its Ron is the one that says that Sirius will have to kill them
before he can kill Harry... in the movie its Hermione... Hermione's
the one that fixes Harry's glasses, in the book its anyone but
Hermione, and the list goes on and on and on. I wouldn't mind but
because of it, both Harry and Ron are turned into these extremely
two dimensional characters that makes you wonder why they're even
there in the first place...I love Hermione, Ron, and Harry, and it
just bothers me so much (in case you can't tell) that Hermione is
favored above both Harry and Ron in the movies, JKR loves all three
to, they are much stronger together then apart-g- so you don't get
that in the books. Anyway I chalk up the blowing the jail door to
that, then anything else.

Since we have been purposely kept in the dark by JKR as to the core
of Hermione's wand (seeing as Hermione is one of her favorite
characters, I don't think JKR will neglect a little detail like that
unless it will prove to be a very important detail for the remaining
books.
kitten says
Do you really think it was done on "purpose?" I didn't even know we
didn't know the core of Hermione's wand until you mentioned
it...I just want to say that there really hasn't been a proper time
and place for in the books for Hermione to come out and say what her
core of her wand is... let me explain... its kinda like having a
pet turtle, you wouldn't just go up to someone shake their hand and
say "Hi my name is Anasazi and I have a pet turtle" it would be
weird, right? Same with Hermione, she wouldn't just go up to Harry
and say "Hi I'm Hermione Granger and the core of my wand is such
n'such" there needs to be somewhat of a reason for it to be said.
Take Ron, if I remember correctly we didn't know what his first wand
was either, it wasn't until the third book, when he had to get a new
one thanks to the tree in the second book, that we find out what his
new one is.
There is also an argument to be said that because it hasn't been
mentioned, then it must not be important at all... I personally
believe that Harry will use his special "power" to defeat Voldemort
and that wands (or girls) will have no or little bearing on it...
its the impression I got when I read the Dumbledore's speech at
the end of OOTP...
