Well, rather like that, but more arbitrary. Each object gets (at insertion
time), a layer value based on the layer you are currently editing.
Probably use a tool window to easily switch between current layer (with
preset values for sub-floor, floor and above floor (maybe add monsters and
walls too)).

Pretty much up to the map developer. If the objects make sense to
logically group and edit together, just add a layer and edit.
