I was at the idea, that a via will be assigned set of "physical layers"
and it will show in each "cooper layer" belonging to that "physical
layer".

That should be relativly simple to achieve. And by default it will be
assigned all the "physical layers". Pressing shift or ctrl will make it
ask what layers you want it to belong. Plus there need to be the
possibility to change default temporary in order to aid making a lot of
blind/burried vias at once.
