Pretty self explanatory - it seems to be in keeping w/ the other tom names.

That it is.
Could you be persuaded to make a converting rule in python/convertrules.py ?

I could.
But before I do, I see a lot of inconsistencies between high/hi and low/lo.  Do
we want hi/lo or high/low?

The names in LilyPond should conform to those defined
in General MIDI Level 1 - see 
http://www.midi.org/techspecs/gm1sound.php

These are unfortunately inconsistent as you observe,
but we should stay with them.

I agree.  Random other page which uses the same inconsistent naming:

http://www.finalemusic.com/usermanuals/finale2011win/content/finale/General_M...
48 Hi-Mid Tom
50 High Tom

I think we therefore cannot accept this patch, sorry Mike.
