I'd be satisfied with a Madoka Magica kind of ending where Ruby seals Salem away, so everything is much, much safer for humanity, but the Grimm still exist. You know, a "She won, but not entirely" ending. Even if Ruby defeated Salem, I'm sure there will be a lot of losses. We've already had about four people die in the last few episodes, so there's bound to be more.
