Carol notes:
If it matters, Mrs. Figg has been mentioned in every book since SS/PS
though we didn't know her first name or that she was one of the "old
crowd" till GoF. Perhaps a better example is Bode, identified as an
Unspeakable at the QWC and then Imperio'd and murdered by a potted
plant in OoP.

Carol, agreeing that the two-way mirror will play a role in Book 7,
maybe as a way of communicating with Ginny, who remains at Hogwarts(?)
