  I feel like It would really hard to balance. What would the spell progression look like?

  I always wanted a NWN style sorcerer where you could unlearn and reselect spells upon level up. That way you could take Sleep at level 1 and remove it at, say, level 6 when it becomes much less useful and then replace it with something else, like Blindness or whatever. That would make sorcerers much more beginner friendly.

  Yeah balancing would be a bit difficult. The caster would just get 2 spells randomly selected when he could normally select one manually. In the end you would have most of the spells in the early levels and the biggest problem is level 9 because it has so few spells.
  
  Alternatively I would say 2 extra spells which are given when you reach a new spell level. That way you get 3 there instead of 1 and you get access to a new spell level 1 level earlier like normal mages do.

  What stops someone from save scumming until they get the spells they want? This seems like it would just make sorcerers even stronger.

  That the spells are selected after character creation. You could only save scum the early spells that way.
