My  suspicion is that it isn't all that important but it isn't 
interfering  very much, either. The explosion has already occurred 
with the coming of  H/G, and nothing she does with R/H will either 
help or hurt the situation.  So, I think we will see R/H. There 
would be no purpose served in avoiding  it.



That depends on a readers view point.  I've found that most H/Hr  shippers 
are willing to accept (well, they have no choice) that Harry and Ginny  had a 
relationship.  Actually, many readers can picture Harry being with  Cho, Ginny, 
Hermione, Luna, and a number of other girls.  :-) not at the  same time :-)  
Harry has that type of personality that he could adapt to  any of those girls.
 
Ron/Hermione is a bigger problem.  I think many people are simply  anti-R/Hr. 
 The two just seem like oil and water to even those of us  who saw the 
anvils.  I still keep asking myself why these two people would  even want to be a 
couple.  They are both guilty of doing and saying very  hurtful things to the 
other and seem to have nothing, other than Harry, in  common.  I wish Rowling 
would explain why they are attracted to each  other.
 
It would be a copout by JKR, but I think her best solution, in what will  
already be a packed book, is just to forget relationships entirely.   Everybody 
says that it isn't an important part of the story.  If that be  the case, then 
just leave everything as it ended in HBP.  Just imagine if  she did that.  
People could argue for the next century about it and   HP fanfiction would never 
die.
