I think this could serve as an alternative for backgrounds (choose 3 + Int Modifier skills) but doesn't really mesh with backgrounds as they stand.
I can see the 3rd-fashioned bonus languages (which, at least in my campaign, come in pretty handy).
Going deeper on that, I could see your Int bonus increasing the bonus you get from your skills. Something like "+3 plus your Int bonus (if any)" or, only really helping wizards, "+3 or your Int bonus, whichever's higher." I think that's a nice way to show depth of knowledge and gives skill-based rogues something to shoot for.
Cheers!
