Kathleen,
You asked " Does anyone have experience with wiring
outlets into the floor? Waterproof outlets? Will I be
better off dropping down from the twelve foot ceilings
with conduit?"

If you are wet mopping, I wouldn't put outlets in the floor.
All mine are three feet high on the walls except the ones coming down in
the centre of the room for which I built a ceiling to floor post that
hides the wiring . At this time it is still unpainted/unstained/unsealed.
After watching Peter King work recently I began to have visions of a ceramic
covering for the post. I have to think on it yet. But it doesn't look bad
just as a wood beam.

Can't help you with the rest.
