I rewatched "It's Not Easy Being Green". It seemed like she was really nice before her adoptive father mistreated her. Like many other villans, she was abandoned by her parents. Maybe she just needs a family. Maybe having a baby will change her. Also, she only became wicked over her jealousy of Regina. After everything Zelena has done, Regina still doesn't try to kill her. Maybe the two sisters can eventually become friends. Also, with Emma as the dark one, Storybrooke might need help from someone with very powerful magic. Zelena is the only one who is seen to be more powerful than the dark one. Maybe she can become a hero. Good point, but Zelena didn't prove to be more powerful than Rumple. She was controlling him and using his power; without it she wouldn't be as much of a threat. From what we've seen she's pretty much second-best to the Dark One, which means that your point is still valid, but Zelena isn't quite as useful as the only way she managed to overpower the Dark One was give Rumple an ultimatum of love or control. And even if Zelena would have a family to count on, she would still not be able to let go of her wicked ways. When she was part of the witches of Oz and that Cansass girl (I don't remember her name, pherhaps it was something like Dorine or something with i) appeared she was totally jelous, while actually she had nothing to fear, and now too with Regina.
