I suppose we have other instances of one-line comments turning into something Important. E.g. when they found the locket at Grimmauld Place in OotP and it turns out to be of vital import later on.
(Thus, I thought that the wand in Ollivander's shop was going to turn out to be Ravenclaw's wand, or - once we knew about it - the Elder Wand. Red Herring, drat it.)
Since she has a history of doing things like, I suppose I should have expected her to do it with people as well. But Yaxley didn't turn out to be Important, dispite his earlier mention. He was just a body with a name, there to converse with Snape.
