Some people have pointed out that there is more precedence for female elf warriors than I thought, both things I forgot about and works I haven't read. So I was wrong about her being completely out of place. I still am a little concerned she might subvert Eowyn's storyline, though. Or that they might pander to the B-grade fantasy trope of "sexy elf lady in stupidly skimpy armor" - but they probably won't do that.
