Default [REQUEST] Initiate Call Via Bluetooth Headset

This is one feature that's surprisingly missing from Android. Is there any way to add it in or develop an app to do it?

Yes, it actually is supported in the source code, but it is disabled because there are some issues with it recognizing the voice command over BT, IIRC. I believe the line in the source is in BluetoothHeadset.java, or something like that. It is referenced in the bug filed against it on the Android tracker.

Perhaps some of the devs who build their custom ROMs from source can enable this in one of their future ROMs?
