I think that is true to ever creative field. My husband is a musician/recording engineer who has been in the biz for 20 years. Even with his own compositions he has to make a decision when to say enough is enough of the editing. For his recording clients...well, needless to say, he likes it when they are overly picky and wants to spend the time and money to revise, re-record, etc every single track. He will eventually tell them that it's time to let it go and let it 'publish' on cd.
He's been a great help with my ability to say when enough is enough with my novel.
