I didn't know the Microsoft RT charger would work, but good to know!

As I said, it will charge the Pro, but more slowly. I got the RT charger because it was cheaper for her to just leave at the office. My assumption is that she will arrive at the office with a fully charged Pro, and it will stay that way all day. She doesn't need the USB charger port for her Iphone, because she already has plenty of those around. I even thought getting one for myself, but, since my office is just down the hall, that would be kinda silly.
It was interesting to watch her decision process as she planned what to take on her China trip. If she took the Pro charger, she could leave her Iphone charger block at home. She had them laid out on my coffee table, calculating the relative space consumption. When you're 5' 2" at 110 pounds, and heading for six weeks all over China, every cubic inch or ounce matters. She finally decided to take the Pro charger.
Just FYI, the notorious "center pin" comes into play here. That is the "sensing pin" that tells the Pro it is connected to an RT charger, so it will not attempt to draw more current than the RT charger can provide.
Take care,
