Just some general comments. 

I know this is an old thread, but I like Neville and wanted to add my
comments.
 
I think the whole Longbottom family will be more prominent in future
books. Maybe it's just because I like Neville. In some of my fan
fiction, I've made him a very strong character.
 
OK, I'm rambling. I really do think Neville's presents in the story is
significant. He and Harry have similarities; ie: they have both lost
there parents. Neville's aren't dead but they are certainly lost. I
also, think the book has implied that things are going on with Neville
that aren't immediately obvious. Some people have speculated that his
forgetfulness is related to a memory charm that was put on him,
because of his parents encounter with Voldemort (although that seems a
stretch).

Rambling again, sorry. My point is that, I think Neville is a
significant and special character in this story, and his presents, and
therefore his family's present, will become more prominent.
