Would switching it to MF (Manual Focus) not overcome that?

It has an infinity mark.
However like all motorised lenses, the lens can twist past this point (i.e. lens doesn't stop turning like it would with a manual lens).

That's some price for an IS lens & Photozone tests show it to be very good optically!

Tempted myself but just got a non-IS lens for the same price in the same range.

This is a great value lens. You also need to turn off the IS when using it mounted. It has manual override of AF too, but should be used in MF for astro-photos with a review of trial shots taken.
