This is a request made very often by users of the N900.
When you can catch indication of incoming call with number on it, you can play your custom ring tone but i am not sure, how you can easily prevent system ringtone playing. >As you response readily implies a 'no', the 'not yet' means how long?

The call and SMS system is based on Telepathy framework. You can check rough diagram from http://tpsession.garage.maemo.org/ . With tpsession or qtmobility you can receive events that Telepathy is sending via dbus but you can't prevent other stake holdsers receiving these events. Technically Telepathy framework allows implementing filters in message path that does exactly what you are asking and there is TelepathyQt4 library. I am using TelepathyQt4 for TpSesison. I have not tried to implement filters with Telepathy and Telepathy is not simplest API at all. There has been discussion having simplifies filter API for TpSession but i have not had even Time to check it now. At the moment only way to do filtes is to use Telepathy API's.
