Maybe that is just what's important about the scene: the Floo 
Network.  It becomes important later in the series because the 
Weasleys finally meet Petunia and Vernon (and destroy thier living 
room) when they take the Floo Network to pick up Harry, and the 
network is very important in OoP (Sirius almost gets caught talking 
to Harry, Harry gets caught in Umbridge's office).  It could be that 
that scene has importance as far as furthering the story in other 
books, but not in the resolution of the series.
