I wonder if JKR isn't just being coy with us. Rather than dropping an
intended or unintended hint, she is instead being very consciously
non-commital. She is carefully wording her statement in a way that
leaves the 7th book wide open to any and all possibilities.
So rather than overtly or covertly telling us something, she is going
out of her way to tell us nothing, and make us aware that she is
telling us nothing. But of course, as obsessed as we are we will
undoubtly turn even the slightest nothing into a very bid something.
Which, by the way, I think JKR is beginning to enjoy; driving us nuts
that is.
Just a thought.
