I have a feeling I'm about to get shouted down because Hat is not just a debugger... But... The Debug. namespace already exists, why not Debug.Hat? Directly in response to Neil - we do need Hat in the structure whichever we choose - what if there's another Debugging/Tracing tool with an Observe module?

Yes, it matters a great deal. We have reserved the 'Hat' top-level namespace for the exclusive use of trace-transformed programs. No- one should ever use that namespace intentionally for anything else.
Fair enough, seems reasonable. Although then I wonder if we need the "Hat" part, just Tracing.Observe should be enough, since its just as unique, and its in the Hat repo so makes it clear enough.
My suggestion would be just to drop that part. So, e.g.
Tracing.Hat.Observe Tracing.Hat.Trail Tracing.Hat.SExp Tracing.Hat.HighlightStyle
