Well, based on some research, it looks like Call Forwarding is carrier-specific, not device-specific -- meaning that the phone itself does not have control over the forwarding. If that's true, then unfortunately, I think that it would be technically impossible to do what you are requesting.

However, you may want to look into the Call Blocking or Call Filtering apps available on the market. While they don't forward to another number, they give you a little bit more granular control in terms of blocking calls from a specific number(s).

For now, I think I'm going to just focus on sending contacts to voicemail, but I will definitely keep an eye out for this, in case things ever change.

Hopefully that answers your question. If not, just let me know!
