Luna does present a rather interesting character. She has been 
described by JKR as the anti-Hermione... who I personally feel is the 
secondary protagonist (isn't there another word for this?) in this 
story, as opposed to DD or Ron. What is most interesting is how 
quickly she has been set up as a major character within the space of 
the last handful of chapters in OotP. However, I don't think she's 
going to play that centric of a role, except for having an emotional 
tie she can share with Harry and Neville (loss of a parent) and the 
support that can bring, or a *cringe* shippy role that cannot be 
discussed further without posting many various warnings.

Overall, I feel the MoM Sextet will now supplant the Trio as the 
centric group... owing to Ginny's reemergence and Neville's newfound 
purpose... it only makes sense that Luna will also remain a member of 
this expanded core group... but not supplant Hermione and/or Ron in 
overall importance.
