I'm not replying, but I've had further thoughts on this theory.

If I'm right that Ginny is wearing love potion for perfume, 
knowingly or unknowingly, that doesn't have to be the end of H/G.  
It could just mean that H/G shippers get just as much of a roller 
coaster ride out of book 7 as the rest of us.

It could come out early in the book, perhaps Verity saying it at the 
wedding, and then Harry goes off to hunt Horcruxes, and we all get 
to wonder if he will go back to Ginny.  Maybe he'll decide he's glad 
it drew his attention to her, and he'll go back to her when he can. 
That could nicely fill in what some of us didn't see in their 
relationship in book 6.

Some think that all the detail we were given with Harry's star chart 
during his Astronomy OWL exam is foreshadowing clues, OOTP pg 719 -
720 US.  Venus represents love, and now we can see that as his 
relationship with Ginny.  By following what Harry did with Venus in 
filling in his star chart, you can see a pause and resume in the 
relationship, maybe even two of them. 

That would be a way for Jo to include Emma-like twists, alternate 
dealing with the romance and the hero journey, and get them both 
wrapped up in one book.
 

Pat.
