Mitts for climbing

So I've been out in rather cold conditions latley and I'm thinking of adding a pair of mitts to my collection of gloves.

Not looking for something super warm (I have BD Mercury Mitts for that), but I am looking for something warm, that I can still climb ice in and hopefully that also have a taped warperfroof shell that I can use on its own or as a windmit.

I was looking at the OR Cornice Mitts which seem to fit the bill, but was wondering what people were useing?

 

I like the idea of the Cornice Mitts b/c they seem like they would be a resnoubly dexterious mitt for ice routes, they have the taped Gore outter and I'm hopeing that I can use the inner as a SUL belay mitt over softshell gloves.

But has anyone used them? I'm worried about dextarity and warmth and about rappelling with the rubber palm!

 

Cheers
