I've said this on the Twilight Sparkle comments thread but I think it's also relevant here: I think that the writing team are keeping their options open regarding Flash.

Right now, they don't have any special use for him but they're aware that the order may come down from Imperial Centre (Hasbro corporate HQ) that there is to be another Princess Wedding to sell playsets and limited edition toys. In the event that this happens, they want to avoid another "Who the hay is this Shining Armour guy?" outcry by actually having the selected lucky stallion as an already-seen-face.
