For me, of course, this is an argument against the woman being 
Catherine. I'm sticking to my Catherine = Ouen's sister story, at 
least until I make up one I like better :)

As to who this woman is: no idea! But shortly after we hear Valeria 
being told that the cacogens have landed a man and a woman in the 
grounds of the House Absolute. Maybe ...?
