Claudia:
I like this idea a lot. I would like to add a quote from JK Rowling's 
World Book Day Chat (March 4, 2004):

"Ernie: I wonder if you can let us know what form will Professor 
Snape's Boggart and Patronus take? I am very curious.
JK Rowling replies -> Well, I'm not going to tell you Ernie, but 
that's because it would give so much away."

I was automatically assuming that it would give too much away about 
Snape's personality. But what if her answer had given away too much 
about the nature of a boggart?
I don't see how this could become particularly important for book 7 
though, but mayby it could.
