I dont know how to weight in photoshop but I usually do is use something similar to the channel enhancement method from Starizona (I have a PS action on my web page to perform the method if required). Obviously it is a balancing act to keep sky background neutral.

I also play with after combination is the Sleective colour (saturation) tool in PS to boost reds (SII) in the hubble pallete but it can introduce a fair bit of noise.

Another cheat I use is to blend Ha with the SII at say 10 or 15% opacity prior to combination just to give it a little kick in the behind - the purists will hate it but it does assist in balancing the pallette.
