I'm wondering whether she will miss the 70 - 300 that came with the 300D and whether it would fit on the T5i. I know it's her primary lens. ???

Keep the lens you have and add the 18-135.  If she's a hard core shoot everything in front of her person, consider also the 10-18.  Those 3 lenses would enable her to shoot any kind of photograph.  That was my objective, as and amateur.  The professional may want to specialize and have the best for the one thing he does best.  Since I am a hobbyist, I like to be able to shoot something completely different in a completely different way, so I have the long, the normal and the wide zooms.  I may get a really good lens for one specialty or another as I progress, but first I wanted to be able to take any kind of picture.
