After reading nearly all of the replies so far, I think that the fairest solution is to allow the interrupted bettor to bet what he wants, and then give the premature caller the option to either:
1) Call the bet.
2) Fold his hand while calling the amount of money already placed forward by the bettor.

You guys are overlooking the most important part. What if I'm bluffing, and the guy prematurely calls. Can I take my entire bet back, even the amount that has been cut down?
According to your reasoning, I should be able to.

The bettor should always be forced to bet the higher of either the minimum amount or the amount that he has already placed ahead with a forward motion.
