I know there has been a lot of discussion previously about 
how 'Slytherin' Hermione has become in regards to her treatment of 
Rita Skeeter, and in the books there are many mentions of 'good' 
characters having darker sides, eg. Remus and his werewolf side, 
Harry and his anger etc.

We have also seen people that are quite obviously 'dark' finding the 
goodness within such as Snape, though one can argue he isn't 
that 'good' of a character, I am making reference to his work for the 
Order. Is there room in future Harry Potter books for other 'dark' 
characters finding the goodness within?? In this I mean them becoming 
like Snape and not reverting to the 'good' side so that they can 
escape punishment because they have been park of the 'dark' side. 

My apologies if this has been discussed earlier, and if it has a link 
to previous discussions would be appreciated.
