I think it would be better to match the visual ordering of layers as they appear in the selector and Layers dialog.
That basically means that "above" is a depth-first traversal of layers, avoiding the problem of constantly "coralling" the user into higher-level layers when using sublayers.
FWIW, depth-first traversal is already implemented with Inkscape::next_layer (for above) and Inkscape::previous_layer (for below), in layer-fns.cpp.
