Not sure. She seemed a bit young, 30ish. Most if not all the teachers
at Hogwarts seem to be 45 yes old to 65+ yrs old. Are the teachers
aloud guests/SO's at the school?

I thought that it was Professor Vector. I thought that that was a female
teacher, and she does look like that would be a suited name. Still, I would
have to go through the books again to see if Vector was a woman, and I dont
feel like doing it now, anyone else that can clear that up for me, please give
a shout.

Could be Professor Sinistra or Professor Vector... but the moviemakers have
been pretty good about crediting people playing characters who are named
in the books but don't have speaking parts in the movie, so I would think one
of these two would be listed if they had cast someone as one of them, and I
don't recall her being mentioned in the credits.
So she's probably just a random extra.

She's a witch, according to the Harry Potter Lexicon:

I wish they listed a passage with evidence for this, though.

Definitely not all--Snape's in his thirties--and since he's a Head of
House, it would surprise me if he was the youngest teacher there by that
big a margin.

Nope, Trelawney is not mentioned in the cast list (look at my posting on
this group; subject: "Re: More on POA casting" and the Message-ID:
b7cmg6$7t1$1...@phys-news1.kolumbus.fi ) - the person is propably the
Librarian, madam Pince.

If you look at the credits and previous posts in the last few days you will
see it is Madam Pince the librarian :-) She is also sat close to him during
the Quidditch match, just behind him and to his right :-) As also stated in
the last few days (and the books) Professor Trelawny doesn't eat with the
staff usually, she prefers to eat in her tower alone.

No. She's the librarian. She shows up in several scenes, and appears
to be dressed the same each time.

It's no doubt she prefers to eat alone; look how McGonagall treated her
the one time we have seen her eating with the group. Moreover, look how
much help she gives Dumbledore when her inner eye isn't clouded -- all that
information on the future just rolling off her lips.

We're told the very first time her name is mentioned, Catherine.
In PoA-12, Ron tells Harry that he heard Hermione "talking to
Professor Vector, that Arithmancy witch".
The slightly tricky one is Professor Sinistra, who danced with
Mad-Eye Moody in GoF-23, and nervously avoided his wooden leg
while he did an extremely ungainly two-step. It's a fair that
Sinistra is a witch, but we can't prove it from canon.
However, in the Connection Interview (I'm not sure if Troels has a
definitive version ready yet) JKR said on 12th October 1999 that if
you look down the staff list in the school, you will find that it is
exactly 50% women and 50% men as teachers.
Assuming that Professor Vector is a witch, it works out like this...
Madam Hooch (Quidditch) Professor Binns (History)
Minerva McGonagall (Transfig) Albus Dumbledore (Headmaster)
Professor Sinistra (Astronomy) Professor Flitwick (Charms)
Professor Sprout (Herbology) Severus Snape (Potions)
Sibyll Trelawney (Divinations) various (Care of MC)
Professor Vector (Arithmancy) various (Defence AtDA)
..and if we assume that JKR meant the whole staff, then this...
Madam Hooch (Quidditch) Professor Binns (History)
Minerva McGonagall (Transfig) Albus Dumbledore (Headmaster)
Irma Pince (Librarian) Argus Filch (Caretaker)
Poppy Pomfrey (Nurse) Professor Flitwick (Charms)
Professor Sinistra (Astronomy) Rubeus Hagrid (Keeper K+G)
Professor Sprout (Herbology) Professor Kettleburn (CoMC)
Sibyll Trelawney (Divinations) Severus Snape (Potions)
Professor Vector (Arithmancy) various (Defence AtDA)

Very much true, however taking into account that we've never seen two
people of the same sex dance with each other - not even Fred & George,
which I would've thinked was a normal behaviour on teens of their age...
just for the laughs, I'm quite willing to take it as a fact that prof.
Sinistra is in fact a female - ie. a witch.

The most definitive (I think it is at least 99% reliable as to
wording and 100% reliable as to meaning) is at

Exactly!

Why assume Vector is a witch - I thought that was canonical - isn't it
Prof. Sinistra you're making the assumption about?

Hmm - it would seem that Kettleburn's resignation upset things if
we look at the total staff - and a new female DADA teacher in book 5
will upset it regardless. Makes me wonder if we will see some new
male teachers or other staff introduced in OotP to balance things.

Me too, but alas it does not constitute proof.

Very probably, but it does reinforce the argument that Sinistra is female.
