The Hunter (spoilers)

Is it just me or was the Hunter a jerk and a wuss? I know he is supposed to kill the waker before the third wish is granted, but he kills the girl working in the clothes shop. Complete d!*k move. And seriously, what is the point of him waking upon the third wish? What if the waker wishes for a cheeseburger? That can be granted pretty dang quick leaving the Hunter no time to make the kill. Should awaken at the firt or second wish. And another thing, supposedly the Djinn had been fighting this guy for centuries, yet our boy gets his butt killed in less than five minutes. Waste of a character.
