<<SNIP>> Neville *didn't* have to be there! But the fact is, he was. 
Why? <<

Laik:
I also find it very interesting that during the whole Department of 
Mysteries debacle, Neville is the only one aside from Harry who 
touches the prophecy. I can't help but think that this is an anvil-
sized hint from JKR. Neville is still apart of that prophecy. I'm 
sure of it.

Taryn:
Although I think Neville definitely has a large part to play, especially in regards to the prophecy, I don't think this is a hint. I think that once Harry took the prophecy off the shelf, anyone could touch it. That is why it was so important to get him there, and why the DE's had to wait for him to pick it up to attempt a retrieval of it.
