FIgured it was time for an update.
First, Dobby has been cut from movie 5. No great loss, but still evvidence of some of the frastic changes we'll see.
Second, I was thinking about the prophecy, and while I know what I noticed has been noticed countless times by more obssessed people, I feel it is worth noting. The prophecy says, "The one with the power to vanquish the Dark Lord approaches...born to those who have thrice defied him, born as the seventh month dies...and the Dark Lord will mark him as his equal, but he will have power the Dark Lord knows not...and either must die at the hand of the other for neither can live while the other survives...the one with the power to vanquish the Dark Lord will be born as the seventh month dies..."
The part in bold is in present tense. It is implying something, are they both dying? Are they neither alive? I do not know for sure.
Yet I feel it is the most important part of the prophecy. THAT is the line JKR will use to pull something out of the hat and surprise us.

I think you're looking too deep. I for one think that it means "living" as in getting on with your life without having to worry about someone stabbing you in the back. But you are right, JKR has a way with surprising us.
Pity about Dobby though. He's awesome.
