kitten... first of all... I'd like ot point out Luna, she was only 
in one book, and its not like she was in every single paragraph... 
or did something extremely remarkable, or that readers know 
everything there is to know about her... and yet she is one of the 
top girls to pair Harry with. Why couldn't jkr do that again with 
another minor character? And Susan at least has been mentioned 
before... unlike Luna who kinda came out of nowhere.

Secondly... Harry hasn't shown any interest in any girl at all... so 
*any* girl he gets involved with, major or minor, will take some 
work. for it to be believable. Harry isn't going to open a letter 
from Ginny or Hermione or Luna during the first chapter of HbP and 
fall madly in love with her, or attend a dance and sees them all 
dressed up, and wonder why he has been so blind for so long... it 
will take some literary work for Harry to get involved with any of 
these three girls, other wise it will be a horrible written fanfic. 

I think JKR can take a character like Susan and develop her into a 
love interest... because any relationship Harry gets involved with, 
is going to have to be developed.

As a passing interest, maybe, but like you, I don't see bringing in a
relative newcomer at this stage. And I agree that anything that
happens in this book is not the final word, if there ever is a final 
word.
