@DarkO14,

Thirty moons is two and a half years. That means that Sunset could return as early as Season 6.

There is also the fairly easy (if lazy) plot device of the 'magical hand-wave'. Basically some idiot (*coughTwilightSparklecough*) fiddles with the mirror and somehow manages to lock it open. Personally, I hope that they don't do that but if they came up with a decent reason for Sunset being needed back in Equestria now, I suppose I wouldn't mind.
