You could use an inverted steerer design as Pace did and English does, steerer. stem and bars could therefore be one unit, or steerer/stem one unit with a conventional open-faced clamp for the bars.
That would make it easier to run the cables into the frame as soon as they leave the lever body, then for the front brake you'd run it into a fork leg.
For the rear brake I'd be tempted to go with a pedal back type, or simply run the cable through the frame.
