Speaking as a user, I'd expect the result to depend on whether I was 
drawing three-dimensional art with real shadows, or two-dimensional art 
with illusionary shadows. 

In 3D art, I'd expect objects to cast shadows that cover objects lower 
than them. But in 2D art, I'd expect two planes: an object plane, where 
the objects sit, and a shadow plane beneath than. Objects are always 
above every shadow.

*Within* the object plane, objects have ordering, but it's the order of 
(infinitely thin) flat shapes stacked on top of each other. It 
shouldn't affect the shadows beneath them.

That's my two cents worth.
