K:  I completely agree.   I think that this would be truly interesting. 
    I'd also like to see how Ron would react to Harry receiving MORE 
bounty.  I think that such an inheritance may be the thing that pushes 
Ron into a Judas role.

Not that I hope that happens.  In fact I fervently hope it DOESN'T 
happen.   But I can see signs in the plot that point to that.   I keep 
hoping, though, that I've misread those signs.  (First one that comes 
to mind is Ron's unbecoming poutyfest about the Niffler and the 
Leprachaun gold.)
