Depending upon the stuff involved, you might want to get it tested for asbestos. Some of the acoustical ceiling spray had lots of asbestos in it. If it doesn't contain asbestos, I would take it off. If it does contain asbestos, I would still take it off, but only with the proper setup and protective gear (like we did in our kitchen here in New Mexico). Starting with a clean slate (or ceiling) sounds like the best idea.
