I'm all for doing things differently and with an independent spirit, but can't help thinking that you're starting with the wrong frame here, even if it happens to be one you own and like.
The reason I say that is all down to tyre clearance. With a new front fork the front should be okay, but the rear might struggle with anything wider than a 25mm, and you'd ideally want 32mm tyres for a true do-it-all bike that's properly capable of the odd bit of touring and light off-road. You may be better off using an old cyclo-cross frame with canti brakes, but then again, maybe that's just too logical and too easy...
