I'm trapped forever in the War in Heaven in my first Banks ironman campaign due to a lack of planets we can take to get the 75 necessary warscore (curse the Unbidden!). With that in mind, I think there needs to be a failsafe warscore award to ensure that, if one opponent is completely defeated, the war will end.
My suggestion is thus: If all the planets belonging to one side of the conflict, including vassals, are conqured, then the other side automatically is awarded +1000 warscore. If that happens then I'd say it's fairly reasonable to say the enemy is defeated.
