Spatial placement (x y z axis movement)

With the upcoming removal of collision, all that's left that I can think of is the ability to move an object around in space, along the X, Y, or Z axis. Rotation might be included in that as The addition of rotation could see some highly interesting uses of false perspective (the ability to simulate façades in an orthographic view)
Spatial placement itself, however, especially along the Z axis, would provide a significant leap in the versatility we would have when working on a map. Take the simple, tried and true painting. Currently, they're locked at a specific height, which is very modern. If we look back, however, at older parts of history we see paintings arranged in all sorts of places; above one-another, stacked this way and that, crooked and straight and up and down the walls.
Not just paintings, but all sorts of objects could become indicators of habitancy by just the way that they're placed in an environment.
It would be marvelous to be able to recreate that in some capacity - the still chaos of places that are truly lived in, where the foundations of living are marked by the ever changing dynamism and needs of life.
