Counterspelling yet again

Just read a thread where someone mentioned the idea of a swift action dispel magic.

I really like the idea of counterspelling being a good tactic in general. I have engineered and been subject to scenarios where dispelling worked really well while the fighters beat a mage down. I'd liek it to be more viable at lower levels and to more casters.

The feat reactive counterspell goes a long way to making it work better, as does the spell that allows you basiclly the same benefit.

What level increase to make dispel magic an immediate action (same as quicken or higher again)
Possibly what level increase if you reduced the bonus to the check as in half caster level rather than caster level for instance.

Also what would a lower level say level 1 dispel look like, just 1d20 with no bonus perhaps?

I've read other threads in house rules but none that actually tickled my fancy!
