Not before now I didn't, but I'm going to and my family will likely throw me out.

I've been to several jazz concerts where the drummer would change grip during or between songs.

How do you hit the edge of the cymbal with a matched grip though? I'm not really a drummer, just a bass player who still hasn't gotten a drum kit, but that seems like a situation where you'd need a traditional grip for it not to be awkward.

I did finally get my five year old this drum for Christmas. I'm going to slightly regret it I'm sure, but hopefully he'll have fun:

Percussion is hitting stuff so it makes sounds. Theremin is like the least percussion instrument.
It's pretty impressive though, and looks pretty weird because it's just hands in air.
