Phone.app for OS X please, continuity needs a dial pad for making calls

Would be awesome to incorporate the phone.app thats on the iPhone which includes a dialer, contacts, favorites, all in one.

I love the continuity feature of using my mac to make and receive calls. But what if we make a call that requires the dial pad to access menus and stuff? There's no way to do that on OS X.

Would love to somehow see iMessage/Facetime/Contacts/Phone being rolled up into one app for OS X.

I'm on 10.10 and you can already do that via FaceTime. Just called my service provider, because I knew they have a menu and I simply typed the number on my keyboard and it worked just fine.

My kids like to use that on my MBP its a nice feature and one I wasn't totally aware of until they started using it.

Hi, there is an app, SpeedDial, in Mac App Store that addresses all your needs regarding calling / iMessaging your favorite contacts or any number, just from menu bar in your Mac computer.

It is available in https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/speeddial/id1118422609?mt=12
