Oh, gah. I read farther down--according to JKR, Lupin was unemployable. Which makes no sense; how did Dumbledore employ him in the first place, if his condition was public knowledge? If only a few people knew, wouldn't they have made others aware of it?
Of course, I'm also of the opinion that interviews aren't canon--not because "only books are canon" but because JKR obviously can't be bothered to mesh her mental image with the details she wrote in the books themselves.
