I can't think of anyone else. My vote is Mrs. Figg. Any other ideas?
 
Najwa again:
I rather love the idea of Uncle Vernon becoming a wizard, not only
would it be funny just to find out that he was one, but it would also
be entertaining to see him going to Hogwarts as an adult. My guess is
he'd be placed in Slytherin. He's definitely got the attitude of one.
I see no Gryffindor or Ravenclaw qualities in him at all, but if he
can surprise us with becoming a wizard, then he could surprise us
there as well. I can't think of any other candidates either, unless
its someone not too important, and that, in my humble opinion, would
be a waste of storyline. Arabella Figg, is a squib, she's not a very
prominant character, and I could see why JKR would want to make her
the late bloomer, due to her role in the Order of the Phoenix, but I
hope it will be someone that will totally catch us all off guard and
have some comical value. This last book is going to be the darkest, so
why not a little bit of humor to lighten the mood some?
