Room of Requirement -- Horcrux

Is it possible that LV hid one of the horcruxes, the necklace in 
particular, in the Room of Requirement when he spoke to DD about 
teaching there?

The text says that Harry saw "jewels" and a tiara in the ROR when he 
was hiding his potions book.

Made me wonder:  why would jewels be hidden unless they were stolen or 
were cursed or something like that?

If Hogwarts is supposed to be the safest place to hide something, then 
surely the ROR is the safest place in Hogwarts (next to DD's office, of 
course) to hide something.  That seems to be one of the reasons for the 
room's existence, after all.

Hmmm.  My mind just wandered.  Trewlawney wears a lot of jewelry and 
she also uses the ROR to hide her sherry bottles.  What if she spotted 
Slytherin's necklace and treated it with "light-fingered contempt?" 
Wouldn't that be ironic?
