Lynn:

IMO, Neville was placed in the scene so he could
pass on the information of Harry's reaction to
the Dementors to Draco and Co.  If Neville hadn't
told Draco, no one other than the Trio, Ginny and
Lupin would have known how Harry was affected
until the first Quidditch game and I don't see
any of them talking to Draco.  It also tells us
that Neville is willing to tell Draco things
about Harry.  I've always found it interesting
that Neville would do this.
