One question though - how do you know you are "over" stretching? Ie if the image is starting to look rough/ragged after a stretch, is this an indicator you've pretty much hit your budget limit with the exposure/data obtained?

Yes,noise level will limit you but of cause you need to push harder to see what you have to deal with first,then drop back.
Noise reduction techniques will help but nothing is a substitute for more good data and dark skies.
H mentioned flats,(don't skimp on dark's either)most important(even more so for DSLR) so follow this advice to the letter...he knows what his talking about.
I remember H used to spend a lot of time on his dark's straight after lights so this would give him closer temperatures to his lights and had great results.
Like he said mate keep It up,your well on your way.
