Precisely what wizards do in the world -- besides government, education and sport -- is never spelled out well. Is there a wizard college? Law school? Fast-food? Clergy?
I'm glad Harry's an Auror, though internally Rowling strongly suggests that one would have to have finished school and get further education to be one.
In some ways, I don't want to know. The seven books stand alone as a story. In other ways, I want the equivalent of LotR's appendices, with lots of detail.
I hope Rowling doesn't get caught in the hype. Everything she does from now on will be weighed against the Harry Potter books, and she needs to step away from the teaming hordes.
