Good news indeed! Glad things worked out for you.
If you're used to the Canon interface (menu system and controls), my vote would be to stay with Canon.

If you want L lenses, my first pick would be the 16-35 giving you the equivalent of 25.6-56mm range on the 50D's cropped sensor. But only on a FF sensor can you truly appreciate the 16mm.

For sheer usability, if I had to pick 3 lenses to have in the bag, it would be:
10-22 f/3.5-4.5 EF-S
24-70 f/2.8L
70-200 f/2.8L
10-22 f/3.5-4.5 EF-S
24-70 f/2.8L
70-200 f/2.8L

How about if I replace the 24-70 f/2.8L for the 24-105 f/4L?
24-105 f/4L reviews

I haven't had any experience with that glass, so I can't comment on it. However, the reviews on FM were generally good:
24-105 f/4L reviews
