How about a bit of 3-dimensionality to hack?  You could use the < and >
keys as up and down (and you stay there when levitating, but you can only
jump up briefly when not levitating); you could also have items hanging
from the ceiling, like bats or food caches.  An addition to the status line
(like "Alt:" or "Hght:" would tell you whether you were on the ceiling, on
the floor, or in between.

You'd fight up and down the same way you moved; also, you'd have to deal with
monsters coming up the stairs at you.

So what do you all think?  Is this unreasonably difficult?
