I believe keepright does take note of the layer tag to see when two ways are
not intended to meet, but I guess it doesn't know about ele.  (I didn't know
about that tag either - not that I am any kind of OSM expert - just saying that
it is little used in some countries where the data isn't available.)

I've sent a message to Harald K., the keepright maintainer, to ask if this
can be fixed.
