I'm looking for a boot with front and rear welts (for compatibility with the crampons I have), a relatively wide toe-box, (the Asolos and La Sportivas I've owned are painfully narrow for my foot) and a boot that will be good for relatively long approaches. I'm not going to be doing much in the way of vert ice climbing (maybe occasionally) but more glacial traverses and mixed rock/ice/snowfields. Most of the use will be high alpine summertime, tho there will be occasional winter use. Would this boot fit the bill or should I be looking elsewhere. I've had really poor luck with mountaineering boots.

The Scarpa Mont Blanc is a bit higher volume than the Summit and would work as well.

This boot totally fits the bill. And with Backcountry wicked awesome return policy, it's likely your boot luck will change.
