Nice one!  Though for me personally that would interfere with my drum 
layering ideas, since they both rely on Preset Transpose.

Here's one solution to the problem of FINDING your drums in Grid Edit 
mode (if you're performing you don't want to be wasting time 
frantically scrolling the note field):

Make custom presets for each of your patterns (as rEalm suggests 
elsewhere). If you assign your drum sounds to different tracks (T1 is 
kick, T2 is snare, etc.) you're probably only using one or maybe two 
notes on each track. So once you've picked the sound, go into the 
Preset and transpose the layer up or down so that the sound you're 
using is always on the same note. You can either put ALL drum sounds 
on the same note (like Middle C), or use a different key within the 
same octave for each type of drum (C is kick, D is snare, etc.) The 
important thing is that you're consistent. Then when you jump into 
Grid Edit mode and are looking for a particular drum you no longer 
have to wonder which octave and key it's on. Voila.
