It should be possible to map boost relative to rpm and get the effect you desire. The car will be slower though... You have to loose a big chunk of that mid range power to reach your goal...
Exactly (again)!

The car WILL be slower with the loss in mid range power, but, you would get the power curve you wanted then.

Now, if you were in the market for a turbo upgrade, well then, the above sentence is of no concern to you! Just make as much power as you possibly can and you will probably have a great power curve!
