Geez.  :-)

How about obfuscating?

I think you may have missed my point.  Let's say I want to create a new
SMS app that has this obfuscating feature.  But I don't really want to
invent the wheel since there are so many good SMS apps already out
there.  Is there a way for an app to catch the event that indicates the
message is going out so that it can tap into it?
