Discussion: Avoiding the Second Schleswig War

What are the possibilities that after the death of Frederick VII the throne of Denmark could have passed to the king of Sweden and Norway Charles XV? If that had happened instead of it going to Christian IX could the Second Schleswig war been avoided? This seems like a great chance for the creation of a Kingdom of Scandinavia.

And another thought...

What if Sweden/Norway had supported the Danish in the Second Schleswig war like they did the first? Could they have achieved victory or a settled compromise splitting the territory between the Germans and the Danish? Would this had lead to a possible Union between Denmark and Sweden/Norway?
