Sounds like you've got some really good ideas and great advice. I'll simply suggest a little aesthetic consideration: instead of trying to cram so many different species into one space, how about focusing on just a few, perhaps some that contrast nicely with each other - say several low light specimens of one or two species for the bottom, and one or two high-light species for the upper areas. I think such a set up might highlight each individual species a little better and maybe look more natural. Doing it with the list of orchids you provided might run the risk of turning into a big jumble of plants with no central points of interest. I'm sure you could pull it off, but just something to think about.
