I'd like to suggest that the requirement to pick Dispelling Attack be changed from "must have the Major Magic rogue talent" to "must be able to cast a 1st level arcane spell or use one as a spell-like ability".
With this change, a Rogue/Wizard for example would not have to take Minor Magic and Major Magic to qualify for Dispelling Attack.
Thanks.

I'm against.. It would do two things...
1) Require the rogue to multiclass. Which is bad for a base class ability. It would be fine if it was part of a Prestige class, as it would be building uopn the previous classes.2) Would put certain races as the obvious choice for this ability (gnome for example), turning it into a virtual racial ability.
If a rogue is to learn this ability, he should be investing in class abilities to learn it. Not gain it by virtue of race or requiring multi-classing, as if he were going into a prestige class. Which the rogue class is not.

A Rogue could still take Minor Magic then Major Magic rogue talents to qualify, but likewise as you noted a Gnome would qualify.
