"Oh good, Snape's two memories are certainly important for the story 
so we'll get to hear more about those" Jen said, adjusting her 
slightly smudged rose-colored glasses.

A few more for the 'shrouded in mystery unless important to the 
plot' list: 

Slughorn's two perfect Felix days
What experiment went south on Mrs. Lovegood
Why Petunia is preternaturally clean
Whether Kreacher will make it to the House Elf Wall of Fame
How Dumbledore found the cave


Jen, thinking there are probably many little extras JKR loaded the 
story with purely for humour, a character moment or to explain a 
plotline significant for only one book i.e., Mrs. Lovegood
