I agree completely! IMHO, this is the single most annoying thing about
lilypond: the lack of a (obvious-to-the-user) uniform structure of the
input files. Since lilypond is defined by a grammar, it must of course
have a clearly defined structure, but where is it documented?

Exactly! The template section is a good start, but the problem is that
is doesn't explain *why* the different templates are written the way
they are. There should definitely be a section explaining and giving
examples of the different parts of a lilypond source file!
