Yes, it's a pun. :) And Cordelia has just had it confirmed that Draco is not under her thumb anymore. (While it's understandable he wanted to reveal this, it probably wasn't the smartest thing he could have done).
Under normal circumstances, I think grief should be allowed to run out naturally too. But when it interferes in someone's life this way, then something needs to be done. Whether the potion is a moral or reasonable solution is, I think, deeply arguable (and intended to be).
