OK, technically this involves the films, but I want to try and connect 
it in some way to canon!
In PS/SS the film, Snape wishes Harry good luck before his first 
Quidditch match. This scene is not in the book, and I was wondering if 
anyone can remember anywhere in the books where Snape is civil to Harry 
in this manner?

My reason for the query is to increase the possibility of a Snape/Lily 
connection. In the film and the book he humiliates him in the first 
potions class - although another interpretation is that he was testing 
him on potions to seen if he was more like his mother or father. The 
follow up scene in the film might suggest that he was feeling guilty 
about his swift judgement, but as I said, there is no evidence of this 
in the books!
