Pippin:
I think in this book or the next we will find out something about
Snape's ancestry, probably that he is not entirely human. This will 
bring the issue which  currently revolves around the House Elves 
to a more general level; how should the norms of   behavior be 
applied to beings who were never taken into account 
when those norms were developed?
