They are intentionally technical.  post-event is a literal text,
SlurEvent would depend on the actual event in question.

Note or chord or rest or skip or bass figure or cluster note or lyrics
or multimeasure rest.  Something like that.

Slur or phrasing slur or absolute dynamic or annote output or arpeggio
or articulation or beam or beam forbid or bendafter or crescendo or
decrescendo or episema or, well, the alphabet is long yet.

SlurEvent has the advantage that it is a property of the music
expression one can get and print comparatively easy.
