IMO, it all boils down to what Voldemort is after-immortality.  Here 
is my basis for this idea:  Book 1- chief object:  the socerers stone 
which provides immortality; Book 2-chief object:  Tom Riddle's diary 
which allowed Voldemort some level of immortality; Book 3- less 
obvious-but Pettigrew's escape to aid Voldemort was achieved; and 
Book 4-the most obvious reference to immortality:  Voldemort's 
resurrection.  I say all this to support your view that the 
sorceror's stone will be back.  But IMO, the implications of the 
sorceror's stone have been seen in all subsequent books.  Here is a 
sidenote: (if someone wants to take it up) look at Harry's 
involvement with Voldemort's quest for immortality: 1) even as a baby-
Voldemort's inability to kill Harry also results in a huge set back 
in his quest; 2) Harry prevents Voldemort from getting the Sorceror's 
stone; 3) Harry destroys Tom Riddle's diary; 4) Harry saves 
Pettigrew's life-which allows him to return to Voldemort-however, 
with a life-debt to Harry ( which Dumbledore hints may prove useful 
to Harry later on); and 4) Harry's blood allows Voldemort to regain 
his physical body-and who knows what that might do to Voldemort  in 
the long run.  IMO, the question is:  how will the ultimate 
destruction of Voldemort be achieved?  Will his obsession with 
immortality and Harry lead to his downfall?

bugaloo37-who thinks the using of Harry's blood was very significant.
