Description
Your idea
Bowed vibraphone is incredibly common in contemporary percussion literature, it would be great to be able to have bowed vibraphone sounds and an ability to change from mallet playing to bowed playing through text.
Problem to be solved
This feature would add another common percussion extended technique to MuseScore's portfolio.

First clarify how bowed vibraphone sounds should be represented and how text should switch between mallet and bowed playing, then identify the existing percussion sound and text-technique paths; done requires both behaviors to work in notation and playback.
