I'm not doing any scripting for EB, but your idea is definitely possible. I'm doing something of the sort in The First Triumvirate mod - minor victory conditions and an ultimate victory condition. That way the player can decide if they want to go the distance or not.

As to what I'd like to see for victory in EB...

For Rome - they should control the territory equivalent to the Empire in 14AD.

The successor states should have to recreate Alexander's empire.

For other factions, it's hard to determine since they didn't really "win" historically. Well, I suppose the Parthians did to some extent by checking eastward Roman expansion when they defeated Crassus....
