Well, I have implemented almost the same thing, but for players.
If they are occupying a space in open air without FLY, they'll drop
to the room below and get smashed (SPLAT!). This also works if the
player is in a room that is SECT_NOSWIM(i.e. Deep Water) without
WATERWALK. This gives a rule to building rooms that are either
flight or noswim: You must add a room below it.
