Releasing female champs has never been Riot's problem; it just that all of them are squishy mages, or support champs, or sometimes if we're REALLY lucky, a ranged carry. Oh, I guess we got Irelia, but aside from her Leona is the only melee ranged female champ I can remember riot releasing.

And I see your point about the meta; Leona doesn't really fit in with the current one. I haven't seen a Jungle Leona yet so I can't say much about her jungle speed, but I'm just going to guess it's slower than say, Amumu or Rammus.
