I'll grease the cable barrels that go into the levers, I'll even grease the threads to a bolt that clamps a lever to a handlebar, but I do prefer oil on the lever pivot bolt. Those brake return springs aren't really strong and I like to keep the brake levers "snappy" in their return to home.

Silicone spray, I've never used that on cables so I can't speak properly on that. Maybe someone else here has long term experience with it?
