Hello! I am the dev for Repurposed Structures. My mod has 2 new Stronghold Structures with one that replaces the vanilla one if the player doesn't change my config. The other is a Nether Stronghold lol
https://www.curseforge.com/minecraft/mc-mods/repurposed-structures
What I do is I mixin into the Eyes of Ender to get the positions of my strongholds as well and make the pearl fly towards the closest stronghold of any kind. I believe you can do something similar in your mod as well.

Cyclic is another mod that has a new item that track strongholds and they added compat with my mod like this without ever needing to make a hard dependency.

I hope this helps! Let me know if you need help with adding compat.
(also, do note, Yungs is making a BetterStronghold mod too so you may need to add compat for his mod when it is released in the future. Just giving you a heads up!)
