Woopie, that same fighter is already more dangerous with a bow of strength and a a few magic arrows.As for your second example. Either 15th level characters are already using +3 and 4 magic items, so it's not adding too much, or b) the group's straight wizard or cleric buddy is already casting greater magic weapon for the entire party anyways. Greater Magic Weapon is already problematic, so my rule doesn't change things much.Now, it's true that rangers and paladins are getting a bit of an unintended boost, but I don't think that's really going to be a game-breaker.I think straight spell-casters are still going to dominate becaue they have higher level spells, more spells/day, and  for most spell-casters, more spells available (either in their spell-book, or known as a sorcerer or bard).But if you think it's too powerful, a slightly less simple boost would be that the casting level is the greater of your spell-caster level OR 75% of your total level.</blockquote>
