I'm going to go with the 1.8 just for monetary reasons. I would love the 1.2 but figure I could buy the 85 1.8, 17-40L, and 135L for about $200 more than just the 85 1.2.
Edit: Make that $120 more.

I haven't tried and actually thought I couldn't. The Tokina 10-17 is a DX lens and I've heard some stories about the Full Frame 5D sensor would hit the len's glass and shatter it. I'm pretty sure that's what I read or I could be completely wrong 5D & 30D| Canon 16-35ii f/2.8 L USM| Canon EF 50mm f/1.4 USM | Canon 70-200mm f/2.8L USM | Canon EF 100 f/ 2.8 Macro USM

Seems like a pretty good deal, considering the refurbs are increasing in price. I wouldn't want to have to buy another. i went ahead and purchased it even w/o knowing what it covers!lol R3 x3 | 1Dx mkIII | 1Dx mkII | RF 24-70mm | RF 24-240mm | RF 600mm | RF 70-200 | EF 16-35 | RF 100-500
