1) you do need 2D time time(traj,obs)

2) attribute is CF:featureType, not CF\:featureType, the \: is only for CDL

this seems to work:

</variable>
<variable name="depth" shape="trajectory obs" type="float">
<attribute name="axis" value="Z"/>
</variable>

<attribute name="CF:featureType" value="trajectory"/>
</netcdf>
