I would say it's more natural to say "that would be great" rather than "that will be great" in this context. When someone suggests something, it is better to say "that would be great!" as a response. Ex: "Would you like some tea while you're here?", "That would be great, thanks so much!" Ex: "I'm happy to take the dog for a walk if you're busy?", "That would be great. Thank you for offering!"
