I very much agree with genotypewriter here. Lots of assumptions and "requirements" which are not based on fact or experience, but more look like specturbation.
Portraits, people mainly. And the 5D would not be good for that?? That just is nonsensical. Its AF system is very good and very fast, the "reactive" remark is not right.
The 60D would be fine too. VERY fast AF, no D700 can keep up there. People/portraits usually do NOT need 19/30/40/50 AF points... Even a 7D seems overkill for you, toni-a... it is a very capable camera.
So, yes, get a 60D, a 7D, a 5D or whatever your specsheet lust will demand, but just about any camera will do fine. And a 5D a bit more fine than the others due to its bigger and high res. sensor.
