I should have been more clear, I wasn't saying she was introduced for
the first time by Dumbledore in GoF, I was noting that her name was
used BY Dumbledore hinting she had a connection to the wizarding world
(along with Harry noting that one of the World Cup tents reminded him
of her house) a book earlier than us finding out she was a Squib.

Prior to OotP (and Dumbledore's mention of her in GoF) Mrs Figg was
just a batty muggle with cats that the Dursley's allowed to care for
Harry...she had no connection to the wizarding world.
