Oh, totally.  Remember she did say that there was a story thread that 
was taken out of CoS entirely because it gave away too much 
information too soon.  She's definitely keeping stuff back from us, 
as well as from Harry.  It's just a matter of what that information 
is...ESE Lupin?  Dumbledore's Spy Peter?  Who knows?

Part of me almost hopes she doesn't tell us for a long time.  After 
all, it took a bit of the fun out of it when we learned that Blaise 
really is a boy.
