Of course, a romantic storyline follows the natural progression of the saga. Harry Potter has already made the move from a children's story to a fantasy that people of all ages can enjoy. The previous movies have laid the foundation for romance to spark between Harry and Hermione. It is only natural that their friendship will turn into something a little more.

I believe a romantic angle in the story follows the natural progression and development of the characters. A love story will add a sense of realism and humanity to the young wizards. Like any teenagers, the Harry and the rest of the crew will begin to start looking at the opposite sex in a little differently. The characters are getting to the awkward stage when feelings of love creep in their hearts and butterflies dance in their bellies when they are around that special someone.

Simply put, every hero needs to get the girl in the end. Some may argue that a love story will take away from the fantasy, and innocence of the series, but I don't see that happening. Harry and the rest of the crew will simply progress from children to adults, and allow the story and JK Rowling to continue far into the foreseeable future.
