If you look at the 70-200 and a X1.4 tele converter, it becomes a 280mm f/4 lens, so getting that would keep you in the range of that extra 100mm you wanted AND keep you from getting the slower glass, which sounds like you'd love. So I say get the 70-200 first, if you want even more range for astronomy work, get a teleconverter, THEN go for the 24-70. As for the wide angle, even if you say 18mm isn't enough, remember if you get a nice Canon brand 16-35 2.8 L, you could stay in the L series 2.8 range from 16 to 200 with minimal overlap, and have a an extension of 200-280 at f/4. Then when you DID get a full frame, the 16 would be much wider than your 18mm is on your crop body.
