I think you underestimate the difficulty in getting all these addon developers to agree to receive different events. There is a saying amoung software people that managing software engineers is like herding cats. Might it be possible, instead, to create a branch of this addon which pumps out differently named events to which other addons might be able to subscribe? This way the users can decide which version of Instant_Health they want to use. If the addons they use are Instant_Health "aware" then that user can switch over while still letting people with different addons continue with their current setup.
