A simpler hack is to just prefix hetatoms with "H" since I'm pretty sure the atom types for ATOM records are all well defined. My guess is that hetatom types in the PDB are a bit of a mess, but perhaps things are better than that :-)
Fortunately as of the last remediation of PDB, they have a standardized dictionary for HETATMs. So while many things in PDB are still a mess, atom names are not (at last).
