Since the Local C.O. doesn't have anything to do with billing in the
new broken up network, your suggestion would have to be implemented
by the LD carriers.  If I had a choice of carriers that provided such
a service vs. those that didn't, that would be another factor in the
decision of which carrier to choose, along with reliability and price.
 
DTMF DID is available from many central offices.  It does require
extra hardware, so it won't get installed unless it is a clear win
for the Telco.
