I think there might be two reasons why we see so little of Harry's 
relation with Ginny. First of all, personally, I liked having a lot 
of room to imagine there relation. Harry is after all, the main 
character, and this is supposed to be his perfect relationship. But 
isn't the perfect relationship different to every one? Now, because 
we get so little information, we can imagine a perfect relationship 
for them, just like we would want to see it.

I can imagine however that this doesn't really correspond with the 
massive amount of information we get on other parts of Harry's life, 
so I am not sure this really was JKR's intention or just an (in my 
opinion nice) side-effect.

I do however feel that the fact that we see little of H/G together 
is precisely the thing that makes there relationship 'deeper' than 
for example Harry's relation with Cho. During the entire book we, 
and Harry himself, get hints that he likes Ginny (he smells her in 
Amortentia, the love potion, he doesn't want to see her with Dean 
etc.). When they finally get together, this is completely natural 
for Harry, and the state he is supposed to be in to be very happy. 
His relation isn't something he has to think about anymore. He 
doesn't have to feel akward or think about the way he is supposed to 
behave when he is around her. With Cho, having a relation was really 
hard work. With Ginny however, it's natural, and therefor doesn't 
really need a lot of explanation. I think that kind of relationship 
is much deeper than the one with Cho. By not writing to much about 
it, JKR has created a relation so natural and complete that the 
break-up scene is entirely justified. The fact that the break-up was 
very mature (they both understood why it had to be done, even though 
they didn't like it) only fits in with this picture. All in all, I 
am very pleased with the way their relation is descriped.
One last question however continues to nag me; how will they both 
respond during Bill's wedding? Will they stay together until then? 
Harry had forgotten about the wedding when they split up, so maybe 
he can still spend I nice time with her.
