That's not right, `building:levels` does describes the number of levels
that a building has: https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:building:levels
You're thinking of `level`, as in `highway=elevator`, `level=0;1`. 42% of
`highway=elevator`s also have `level=*`:

A room is a room whether it is attached to other rooms or not...
`indoor=room` seems completely reasonable to me.

`room=elevator` (1000 total
<https://taginfo.openstreetmap.org/tags/room=elevator>) and
`building:part=elevator` (2500 total
<https://taginfo.openstreetmap.org/tags/building:part=elevator>) are both
pretty rare tags, but they are both clear and fit in with their
respective schemes, so either is a welcome contribution.

Cheers,
Ben
