I am making my first post as urged by the list elf.

I would like to see the theme of a "good Slytherin" principle 
developed before the end of the books.  It is the one thing that has 
struck me as lacking.  There ought to be a high, as well as a low, 
expression of the Slytherin type, just as there is among Gryffindors. 
Something like the the two expressions of Scorpio--the Scorpion and 
the Eagle.  If there is a correspondence between the Hogwarts houses 
and the four elements, Slytherin would be water.
