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.

I'm not sure the degree to which this impacts the OP's situation, but I right now with the 1, 5 and 6 series all due for an upgrade there's a strong argument to be made for waiting 6+ months. My next camera will be FF and I'm seriously looking at a 24-70 for my 60D. I find myself swapping in the cheap 1.8/2.8 primes a ton (24, 40, 50, 100) when the 18-200 doesn't cut it IQ-wise (which is frequently). And perhaps to your point, I'd be pairing it frequently with the 10-22.
