Sounds like you're happy, I probably would be with either d800 or 5D3 really, but I just can't afford either.

Coincidence that you mentioned the inbuilt intervalometer. Is that pretty much the same funcionality as the TC-80N3? My mum recently got a K-5, and for the price of a 60D it's got most of the features that the 7D should have, built-in TC-function being one of them. (being weathersealed and having a weathersealed 18-55 kit-lens also makes more sense than being forced to L-glass with FF focal-lengths, weights, and prices).
Plug the TC-80N3 into my 7D and bam, there's a rubber cover open, not weathersealed anymore is it? (just when i'd want sealing most, to leave the camera setup overnight and take shots out in the middle of nowhere while i go to sleep).

The K-5 also managed to get AutoIso working fine (they've just got another mode on the dial, Av, Tv, M, then AvTv-mode works the same with autoiso and +/-EV and bracketing). When, Canon, when will you figure this out?

I'll definitely agree that being number one has made canon very very lazy with the feature improvements (1dx aside, moreso on the low end), nice to see nikon responding to some of them, pentax can put anything in that they can afford because they've got no higher-models to protect from cannibalizing.
Bring on competition and we all win!
