Angie here:

I soooo want it to be something like houyhnhnm suggested, but I 
wonder:  how does that square with DD's remark to McGonagall in SS 
that, "He'll have that scar forever (softcover U.S. edition at 15).  
I think I've seen in other posts that JKR has said that DD often 
speaks for her or words to that effect.  So, I don't think DD was 
speaking metaphorically.
