Buy a full frame body FIRST. Then shop for lenses for it.

The preferred midrange focal lengths for APS-C starts at 15-17mm. You're afraid that if you buy EF-S in that range you'll have an expensive lens you can't use on a future 5D/6D. Well, if you don't already have and use a 10-20ish lens with your T2i, then a 16-35L or 17-40L is going to be just as useless to you when you go full frame.
