The problem with the Zelda series tht they're always importing/exporting new characters. The main three are the only important ones. I'm actually shocked that Sheik made it into SSBB. I've likened the Zelda cast to Metroid many times; only a few characters matter. Aside from Tingle, who is a big enough character to get a slot? I'd say Midna, but she's attached to another version of Link the whole time. I know you're big on the goddesses, but they've very minor characters. I can see the cast for Vaati, but I don't know much about him.
There's a point you get to where you're just adding characters because you're out of important ones and still feel like the game deserves more characters, so the cast becomes padded. Does Zelda deserve more? Probably. Are there any viable options? Not really.
