Am I the only one that does believe it was not Snape or any other DE but
Draco himself who cast the Imperius curse on Rosmerta? We know he was
going to use the Cruciatus curse against Harry in the bathroom. So, he's
not against using the Unforgiveable curses. As long as his mission is to
kill Dumbledore, what's a little Imperius to get to his goal? Draco is 
obviously more concerned about L.V.'s reaction to what he does than he
is about breaking any ministry laws. As far as Draco's ability to perform
the curse, I imagine he wouldn't be able to do it against a particularly
strong witch or wizard, but against Rosmerta... I don't think she'd be
that difficult a target, based on how she's been written.
