Significant in CoS - the heirs/heiresses

My apologies if this has already ben discussed.

Wondering about what discovery in CoS could be significant in for 
HBP, my guess is the heir-theme. After all, the founders of Hogwarts 
and their discord gets too little attention. For example, Slytherin 
built the chamber for his true heir before leaving the school. Since 
this seem to have been common knowledge (although no one found the 
chamber), one would think that the reminding founders would have 
come up with some counter-action to prevent the heir of Slytherin 
from finishing Slytherin´s evil plan.

In CoS, Harry pulls the sword of Godric Gryffindor out of the 
sorting hat, the sword that kills the basilisk. This fact (along 
with Godric´s Hollow) make me a supporter of the theory that HP is 
the heir of Gryffindor. (I see JKR´s mentioning of the heir of 
Gryffindor in her Mark Evans-answer more of a "I´ll hide in this 
little clue for you poor things as Mark Evans is a nobody, so that 
you´ll get at least something from this answer" than a ridicule of 
the whole idea?)  But why stop at the heir of Gryffindor? Shouldn´t 
there also be an heiress of Ravenclaw and an heiress of Hufflepuff? 
Together these three (with the help of whatever magic the founders 
have in storage for them, like Gryffindor´s sword) could in some way 
end the split between the houses and distroy LV, the heir of 
Slytherin, and restore peace in the WW. Maybe with the force DD is 
reffering to in OotP (p.743 Bloomsbury):

  "There is a room in the Department of Mysteries," interrupted 
Dumbeldore, "that is kept locked at all times. It contains a force 
that is at once more wonderful and more terrible than death, than 
human intelligence, than the forces of nature. It is also, perhaps, 
the most mysterious of the many subjects for study that reside 
there. It is the powerheld within that room that you possess in such 
quantities and which Voldemort has not at all. The power took you to 
save Sirius tonight. That power also saved you from possession by 
Voldemort, because he could not bear to reside in a body so full of 
the force he detests. In the end, it mattered not that you could not 
close your mind. It was your heart that saved you."

All you need is love...And my guess for heiresses? Luna Lovegood, 
naturally, and perhaps Susan Bones?
