Magical Late Bloomer

If Vernon Dursley is the late bloomer, it opens up several possibilities. 
Dursley has never been kind to Harry.  In fact, he's often been cruel. 
Wouldn't it be right in character for him to use magic against Harry when/if 
magical people appear in his world and he blames Harry for being the reason 
they come?  He's often seen in a state so angry that he reacts strongly to 
situations.  Isn't that how Harry first used magic?

To possibly (though not probably) strengthen the argument that it could be 
Vernon who blooms late in life.  And perhaps meaning nothing at all; in SS 
we see this:
"Uncle Vernon, who had gone very pale, whispered something that sounded like 
"Mimblewimble."
page 50, Am PB edition, when Hagrid had just burst into the shack in which 
Vernon was attempting to hide the family from Harry's letters.

The Lexicon says that " 'mimble' is used sometimes to indicate an indecisive 
sound someone might make they don't know what to say or their courage has 
failed them."

That being said, and I'm aware that this group is not for discussion of the 
games but I think this is relevant to the discussion about the late 
bloomer...  in one of the games there is a spell called "Mimblewimble".  I 
can't recall which game, offhand, but it's one of the first.

So I have to wonder how much input JKR has into the games and if she meant 
this to be a clue or if it's just a coincidence.
