Will that meet the expectations of the pro market?

I'd say yes for Apple's remaining pro market, but I don't see the iMac Pro regaining any lost ground either. The types who'd go for the AIO form factor are not the ones Apple has been bleeding the last 4 years.

I can't imagine an AIO form factor would bring any one back.
They said they were doing it as a bit of a stop-gap (or words to that effect) back when they were talking about the Mac Pro redesign. (Speaking of which, I was hoping for a sneak peak or something on that... unless it's the "one more thing" at the end, though, they've moved on to iOS.)

When I was a kid, people who did wrong were punished, restricted, and forbidden. Now, when someone does wrong, all of the rest of us are punished, restricted, and forbidden... and the one who did the wrong is counselled and "understood" and fed ice cream.
