boyd:
Although Snape knows some of this firsthand, as well! I just keep 
thinking how juicy it would be for Harry to have to learn something
of vital importance--and something hard to swallow--about his parents 
from *Snape*!

I only bring this up, because JKR leaves Harry on his own (with no 
loving adults) pretty much constantly, and I expect this to continue. 
So Lupin won't deliver some key piece of information with that loving 
kindness of his. Snape will spit it out in a painful spasm of hurt!

Plus, this fits better with the whole don't-judge-a-book-by-its-cover 
theme. Frankly, Snape has been an ally of Harry's all along (AFAIK) 
despite Harry's insistence on suspecting him of evil at every turn. 
Just one more reason for Harry to be finally forced to genuinely rely 
on Snape before the series concludes.
