You can try putting out a bounty to make a new app in asterisk or set a

Why a new app? That way you get "forced" into doing it the app way, (like
FollowMe in 1.4 which, if I understand the wiki page on it, doesn't do
anything remotely like what I want out of a FollowMe, which I've written
for my own system entirly in dialplan) or write your own - and if you're
writing your own anyway then ...
And as there appears to be sounds-files in the sound add-ons package for
speed-dialling, I'm guessing that more than one person has done this in
the past ...
So here's a quick & dirty personal (per extension) speed-dial system,
independant of what phone you are using (which I'm not claiming any
originality for as I got the idea from somewhere else, just altered it for
my own system) It's trivial to alter for a company-wide system too - (I
use *1x and *2x to implement 20 system-wide speed-dials) slightly harder
to put a web front-end on it (but not impossible as I'm in the process of
testing that for me), and with that, then you can use incoming caller-id
to associate a name to a number, if they are in the speed-dial list (just
like most phones do with their own personal phone-book)

the speed dial
If you just "Goto" the speed-dial, then, assuming you have dial-out in the
same context it will dial then number for you - which would be an internal
extension, or be dialled out by whatever out-dialling rules you have - eg.
least cost routing, etc.
However with the Goto system, it's possible to really screw up your system
with a cleverly dialled speed-dial, but I'll leave that as an excercise to
the reader ;-)
Enjoy!
