Not really: the unknowable room was an integral part of Draco's plan in
the book. The hiding of things in the Room of Requirement (the overdone
emphasis as you call it) could just have been an expository element
finally telling the readers where Draco has been disappearing to.
Of course, JKR doesn't usually introduce something for one purpose only
so it is a possibility.
-Kateydidnt, who is a very strong believer in the theory that one
horcurx is somehow connected to the cursed Defense Against the Dark
Arts position.
