Haven't you been reading threads on the forum? There are at least 5 cases posted here about getting coins stolen form blockchain.info wallet using tor. Apparently, there are doggy exit nodes which can inject javascript on the pages you load and steal the coins.
So far I've been using Electrum with the various SOCKS5 proxies over TOR in order to make anonymous transactions (sending to paper wallet, etc.)
I've also opened a blockchain.info account in TOR browser and never used it over clear net.
It's a bit of a hassle loading Electrum with SOCKS5 sometimes, especially if the TOR electrum server is down or the TOR node you're connecting to is not friendly with Electrum.
So I'm wondering if using a blockchain.info wallet is the way forward, so long as I always connect in TOR browser. Will my IP remain anonymous?

Sure, but your password might not...
Impossible. Maybe on other web-based wallets but Blockchain has a limited number of walled per ip and since it's an shared ip you are not the only one, which result to be impossible to made this account.
Already tried it :/
