Maybe you could create a sub-directory, like `(ice-9 debugging)'?

This is a really good idea!

No, but we need to make sure it does not lack too many features compared
with the implementation-neutral `scheme-mode' that comes with Emacs, and
perhaps also compared to `quack.el'. Regarding this, I have two (minor)
requests that I'll post in a separate mail.
Overall, your plan looks very good to me. And I'm sure users will all
find it very pleasant. :-)
Thanks for working on this!
Ludovic.
