Nice.

Good!

Yes!
This was one of the goals of such disassembly. To help people when 
debugging. And getting automatically the symbol names in Hatari is 
definitely convenient.

I think that such labels could easily be exported with some Ghidra scripts. 
And for TOS 1.04+, Thorsten already has the address/label pairs.

So I think that your proposition is completely good. Hatari could be 
distributed with the symbols (as external files) for all know TOS versions. 
And when detecting a know TOS version, load those symbols automatically. 
This couldn't be simpler for the users.
