The Ex Name spaces are for non-bindings: add on widgets, conveience/helper
stuff, etc. As your stuff is binding an external library it shouldn't go in
the Ex namespace. The names of the widgets themselves would suggest Phat::*,
but it's not a good idea to make a new top-level pkg for such a small library,
so Gtk2::Phat is probably the way to go.
