Presumably, the body was repaired to true health - which also means that the brain was restored to its original state, that is, functional.
At that point, a Muggle can be revived by simply restarting her heart. A witch, apparently, requires a bit of magic.
But that suggests that you can resurrect someone non-permanently without the Stone - and possibly keep them alive indefinitely by expending constant magic on it like Harry does with his father's rock.
I would guess that the True Patronus would fail in that case, because it is no longer true that "the only thing wrong with this body is that it's dead."
Electricity and drugs would probably have produced muggle-Hermione. Probably the system doesn't assign new usernames to beings that appear out of thin air except for patroni, and Hermione's account is long-retired in any case.
