You're right, that's sort of a bug.

Though, what should we change, code (drumpitch-init.ly) or docs?

I'd say it would have been best to use "highmidtom" in the code right
from the start. Right now I don't see why it wasn't implemented in
this way.
Anyway, I suppose several users woked with "himidtom", changíng it
would require a convert-rule as well.
So I tend to change the docs.

Opinions?

Cheers,
