I used a hack to implement quickly that bottom placement. I'm not happy
with it for my version but you could take advantage of it. It works like
this:
Dwm's global variables wax, way, waw and wah specify the usable portion
for the tile function. So just hack the global arrange() function to
call a function which: Saves wax...wah, uses some space, updates
wax...wah to limit the area to be further used, call
layouts[ltidx]->arrange(), reverts wax...wah from saved.
This is hacking strategy: Less changes, less beauty :-/
For your idea you'd also need to control which clients are to be shown
in ->arrange(). I guess your cpt aleady accomplishes this.

You can do it :*)
