That would make sense as the way the room works (it's always bothered me). Hard to say, though. When they create the DA room, are the shelves and books etc. all pulled from the junk room, or does the room create temporary ones every time they open it, or do those actually become permanent objects once created and sent back to the junk room when not in use? (If the latter, then I'd ask the room to create a Tom-proof box. Or I suppose Dumbledore could put Hallows in a mokeskin pouch in the room - since we have a handy magical object which was never useful, someone ought to put it to good use.) Also, since the room can create a tunnel to elsewhere, maybe it could create a tunnel or portal to somewhere that is Tom-proof, if such a place exists. Or pull up a book with instructions for making a Tom-proof hiding place. I really wish JKR had made the room's limits clearer.
Of course it would have been much simpler if Dumbledore had just gotten over his obsession and destroyed the damn things, but we know that wouldn't ever happen.
