You are right - there's significant canon there.  We now understand 
that Voldemort's robes were *tight-fitting*.  As he relaxes into his 
deluxe robes he will undergo a Scrooge-like transformation, 
spreading sweetness and light and bringing clarity and simplicity 
where formerly there was only Dumbledore's devious scheming.

In the final chapter, he will cure Snape's bitterness with a wave of 
his wand, turn Greyback into a lovable puppy, persuade the Centaurs 
and Wizengamot to reach a new accord, and teach Dobby grammatical 
English.  James, Lily, and Sirius will get a new lease of life as 
Inferi.  Only Harry, whose scar will render him proof against all 
Voldemort's help, will be left crying in his butterbeer, a dinosaur 
whose grisly warrior skills are unfitted for the new age.
