Luki, 

Thanks for the quick response -- that did exactly what I was looking for and was even easier than I thought.

you can do this with a local channel, like:

Set(__TARGET=${EXTEN})
Dial(SIP/phone1&Local/phone2 at common_area)

[common_area]
exten => _phone.,1,Set(CALLERID(name)=${TARGET}: ${CALLERID(name)})
exten => _phone.,n,Dial(SIP/${EXTEN})

Something like that. I hope I got all the () and {} right, I don't do
that much dial-plan coding anymore...
