Some of the grooves really, really shine when played on the kit libraries on which they were originally performed/created,
the Latin and Jazz EZX expansions probably being the most shining examples.

There’ve been multiple forum threads asking (and answering) this question.
Also, at least one FAQ regarding the percussion. https://www.toontrack.com/faq/how-do-i-trigger-the-ezdrummer-2-percussion/

In Logic Pro X (or any other DAW host), the Piano Roll Editor, the Score Editor or the Musical Typing window would reveal the following:
Db-2 is the “One Shots” (handclaps, etc)
D-2 is the Shaker(s)
Eb-2 is the Tamborine

I can’t speak to the demo as I upgraded from EZDrummer1 to EZDrummer2 as soon as it was available on May 6th,
but, that said, it looks like the EZDrummer2-included library, Modern/Vintage kit comes with almost 1,000 grooves:
720 grooves for the kit and 254 grooves for the percussion (handclaps, tamborine, shaker).

This is what I discovered going through my libraries:
Of the EZX expansion kit libraries, the Nashville, MetalHeads, “The Classic”, Americana, Metal Machine, Rock Solid,
Indie Folk, Rock!, and Metal! sound libraries include MIDI that is broken down into intro/verse/pre-chorus/chorus/bridge/fills/endings specifically.

Of the MIDI add-on packs, the Songwriter’s Packs 1-4, Rock Songs, Backbeats, Ballads, Basic Rock, and Session Drums
are broken down into intro/verse/pre-chorus/chorus/bridge/fills/endings.

FYI: The SuperiorDrummer SDX expansion libraries that include MIDI that is broken down
into intro/verse/pre-chorus/chorus/bridge/fills/endings are:
NY Volume #3, Music City, and The Rock Warehouse.
Some of their included MIDI grooves are available as standalone MIDI add-on packs.
