There is something that keeps popping up in my mind on this one. We are assuming that the WW put the elves into enslavement. I think that we are making a wrong assumption here. I do not have the book in front of me but didn't Hagrid make a comment about this in GoF when Hermione tried to get him to join S.P.E.W.? Also look at the refusal of the elves to give up their posts and find it offensive to suggest it. I think that they magically placed themselves in that position. They were not forced. And to find themselves asked not to perform that service after placing themselves in that position would be highly offensive to them.
