While I will not totally discount the possibility that this was a small cameo, my gut is telling me that bringing Ashley/Cinderella to the front of everyone's minds again (after 3 seasons of being gone) is as a setup or foreshadowing. Just like haveing Aurora (Sarah Bolger) in that same scene was a tease for the upcoming Maleficent segments. They would not have had to do that particular scene just for the scene's sake. It did not really add that much to the story, by itself (the one point of Emma losing control and MM becoming a bit distrustful could have been done any number of ways). But couple the one point it did make with a small tease of things to come, and it makes a lot more sense. Then season 5 can't be Camelot as many people are speculating. Cinderella's story had nothing to do with them.
