Add ceiling molding and well ceiling features

It would be good to create a separate object called ceiling and add various functions related to
ceilings, such as putting molding on the ceiling and making a well ceiling.

You might need to research a little more before making wishes.

Mouldings (cornices) can be added with a slab accessory or by magic wanding a custom profile beam to the slab.

Well (coffered?) ceilings can be made by cutting a hole in the slab, placing a slightly higher slab in the hole and adding walls or beams around the hole.

I am not sure a dedicated ceiling tool is needed to do this (just my opinion of course).
