Incidentally, assuming that I have to re-do the flight with an
instructor, is it ok (for the purpose of the "night x/c training" in
61.109) to fly to an airport 58 miles away, land, stop on the runway,
and without getting out of the aircraft takeoff again and go back? I
can't see a requirement in FAR/AIM 2004 for landing, taxiing to the
apron, getting out, etc.

There is none. You may deal with the particulars of the flight however you
see fit. You can fly there, land and come back (you don't even need to make
a full-stop landing, unless you want that for the purpose of meeting the
other areas of night currency/experience). You can fly there, land, park,
grab a bite from the vending machine. You can fly there, land, park, sleep
overnight, sightsee all day, fly back at night. Whatever you want to do, as
long as you meet the "100NM at night" requirement.
