So, what about Kreacher?  Is his part of the HP saga pretty much over?

If he could be ordered to live at Hogwarts by new master Harry, why 
didn't it occur to anyone in OoP to send him to Hogwarts?  It would 
have removed him from Grimmauld Place and thus shut off whatever 
knowledge he might have gleaned from skulking around listening to and 
observing the various Order members who spent time there. 

It's not a big deal, I'm sure, in the grand scope of the books, but 
it's one of those little things that niggle at me.
