DA would naturally look to Harry, rather than Snape, for 
leadership.  Imagine the towering fury THAT would engender in 
Snape.  Finally his dream job, only to have it ruined by that 
blasted Potter! Whether Snape loses control of the class or not, 
this could also lead to the kind of thing you see in a lot of 
fanfic, i.e. Harry and Snape dueling as part of the DADA "lesson 
plan."  After both of them ended up in the hospital wing, Dumbledore 
would have to pick up the pieces of the class, the classroom, likely 
the outside hallway, and any stray pieces of themselves Snape and 
Harry left on the floor.

Valky:
Absolutely Riotous!
And I rather favour that JKR would choose a turn of events such as 
one of these to roll up the ends of the Snape V Harry story. It's 
much like her style and Snape was given fair warning with the mutiny 
on Umbridge in OOtP that it will happen. 

I am not that deeply into fanfic myself I hardly read it and I have 
only ever written two very short ones of my own, but I like the 
Harry/Snape Duel in the DADA classroom that would be kinda amusing.

Speaking of Snape as DADA instructor I personally think he won't get 
there till book seven, by which time I expect DA or some spawn of it 
will have grown quite massive in the student ranks which would be a 
*disaster* of greater proportions for Snape as DADA teacher. I think 
it will probably happen just as you say. Snape *finally* given his 
dream job and nobody cares because they are all looking to the 
teacher they already know and trust.. Harry.
That in itself is irony enough for a good laugh, for me.
