[snip] But if we're speculating:
"Justin was carried up to the hospital wing by Professor Flitwick
and Professor Sinistra of the Astronomy department..." (CoS 11)

According to this fixed stars site
(http://www.winshop.com.au/annew/Sinistra.html), Sinistra is the
star on the right hand of the constellation Ophiuchus -- the Serpent
Bearer. In this case could, Sinistra being the right hand of
the "serpent bearer" indicate that there's more than meets the eye
to this mysterious professor?
For some reason, your question brings this to my mind: where does she sit at the head table, in relation to Snape?
