For what it's worth, i really *really* think that LilyPond and
MuseScore should be integrated.  LilyPond does better job than
MuseScore when we compare default engraving, but GUI is invaluable in
some areas, and some users won't even try to use a tool without GUI
(and while we can pity them, it'd be better to do something about it).
I have some thoughts on how this integration should look like - if
there are people interested in integrating Lily and MuseScore, i can
elaborate.
