Actually it was an extremely bad curse. His memory charms were good
enough to take credit from lots of people and write books about their
heroic deeds passing them off as his own. His memory charms had to be
permanent for that, because otherwise he would have huge, huge trouble
if these truly brave people found out what had happened to them. They
would at the very least visit his doorstep to get their share of the
money he made... He could also not take the risk of Ron and Harry ever
remembering what really happened, because that would be the end of his
reputation and of course taking away people's memory is criminal. So I
don't think he is too long in St. Mungo's. If he ever comes out he
will be very lucky, because what he cast was a charm ment to last for
life, only this time he hit the wrong person.
