I've had the same idea.
Why can't we just use the mac to talk into the phone?
What would be necessary to force the mac to behave as the headset and
not the audio gateway? Can't we do it with the current stack?

The current bluetooth stack only supports a single SCO (audio)
connection at a time, and only exposes it as an audio device so you
can't hook it up to your phone via the handsfree profile.
It would indeed be very nice for the Mac to 'route' phone calls to a
Bluetooth headset, but it'll take improvements to the bluetooth stack
to let it happen. I'm also not sure if the Bluetooth hardware builtin
to the newer Macs can support more than one concurrent SCO connection.
