Yep, absolutely correct - there are however a lot of alternative choices that may be suitable. The 1D's are a 1.3 crop (aside from the 1DS MKII & 1DS) & in my experience 10mm will result in very severe vignetting - having the lower crop factor means that unless you need stupidly wide then ranges starting around 17mm may be more suitable?
I am by no means all knowing when it comes to the crop factor & vignetting but the 10-20 was very severe & completely unusable IMHO.
I'd be interested to know which you go for in the end though & how you find the results
Well, I have a sigma 14mm f2.8 and I love it, using it on a 1Ds (therefore full frame) and lets face it, its not a lens you will use every day, but IMHO its a great saving over the Canon L-series, and isn't a hell of a lot worse in quality.. About £500 squid I think for the Sig v £1500ish for the Canon, although I haven't checked recently. My 17-35 2.8 L is a totally different beast, nothing like the extreme w/angle of the 14mm.
