Sounds too good to be true, and it is. I tried this exact same setup and the noise the new MBP (was a 15" model) make when not even under full load is nothing i wanted to experience all day. It also got really hot in the upper keyboard area.. I those issues werent there, it would indeed be perfect.

Ivy Bridge should help. I'm mid-2010 MBP here so I can't even use my Thunderbolt display yet.
