I recall seeing a comment on the Nikon website that the D800E retains the normal IR filtering, etc, so I presume it will not give a better Ha response.

I'm opting for the D800 standard model at this stage - have paid my deposit already! I think the extra resolution provided by the D800E model is aimed at those aiming to achieve what would usually require a digital medium format camera (apparently the anti-aliasing filters is absent in most medium format digital backs) - I recall seeing something about it only being available in specialist shops, so they don't see it as a camera for everyone. My interpretation is that the D800E will give extra resolution, but only noticeable if you are going for mega-huge enlargements/magazine work.

Just my 2 cents worth.
