Seamless SVO transfer would be my choice.

And that's all assuming you already have the visa.

Thanks to all for the suggestions. Lots of options for IST to SGN/HAN using ST miles. And based on lots of comments, I'm leaning to a doing it via CDG rather than Moscow. Still get to fly the new VN 350 (which was a possible incentive for the SVO-DME transfer) flying through CDG.
