A whole load of canon states that Voldemort loves Hogwarts but never
attempted to take over because of DD.
It seems logical that in Book 7, Voldemort will finally attempt to
take over at Hogwarts. Therefore it is most likely that Filch, in
attempting to protect the school, will finally use some magic. We
also have previous canon for him attempting to learn magic!
As for Petunia, canon suggests that she knows more about the
wizarding world than she is letting on. We also have canon that
Petunia is a nosy neighbour. Therefore, I'm sure she would have been
interested in Lily's 'world'. IMO, Petunia has a piece of information
that is going to help Harry.
If i was going to guess (and I see no problem with guessing!), I can
see Vernon making a disparaging remark about DD entering his house
again and Harry blurting out that he had been killed by Snape. At
this point Petunia will link Snape & Lily in some way!
