I actually didn't mind Ten's long goodbye as much as some people did...mainly because it was Tennant's last episode, and for some reason I can forgive the show runners a little indulgence for that. Hell, I probably would have done the same thing.
Also, there's a precedent, sort of: Five got spectrox poisoning back in the day, and it took him like three whole episodes to die. Personally, I'll take Ten's 'touch base' revisitng scenes over a pinwheel of ex-companions fluttering around the Doctor's head any day of the week.
