This can be done through caller preference, and as you said, use q values,
no CPL scripts needed.

Users may trust nodes for routing, but should users also trust nodes for
not releasing privacy? For example, if you use time-switch for time-based
call routing, your schedule can get released. If you have call screening
service to block a people you don't like, can you ensure that that
people's node will not be one of the routing nodes?

Certainly, it works in most cases if you put your scripts to whatever
nodes in the network, e.g., by using REGISTER, but leave it in your
endpoints are better.
