Upgrading the shifter a level or two above the derailleur is a great min-max move with Shimano (I'm sure with Sram too, I just haven't tried it).
I'm loving the old 10spd xtr shifter / slx derailleur combo, just slightly disappointed with the sunrace cassette - the extra range is great, but the shifts got slightly worse.
