I don't think adding canon romance within the gang is such a great idea. You see, there's also a lot of people who prefer Fraphne and/or Shelma over Shaphne and/or Frelma (personally, I ship Shaggy with Velma) so there always will be a huge number of fans deceived because they didn't get their favourite pairing(s).

Of course, what's done can't be undone - this isn't the SDMI show, after all ;) - so the previous canon hints and "proofs" of romance WILL stay canon. However, I think the gang should rather be portrayed as friends, not potential sweethearts. Let's leave pairings and romance to fanfiction, okay? :)
