That's like saying exporting a Word file to pdf is easy pieces: Just 
export to pure text and then run a2ps on it...

MusicXML is capable of handling the full page layout (including all 
positioning tweas) down to pixel-wise positioning (and even performance 
data, but that's not relevant for lilypond). Any MusicXML export of 
LilyPond that does not support the full page layout is probably missing 
out a huge opportunity for lilypond. After all, MusicXML is nowadays 
used by publishers to transfer the full score layout from one 
application to another.

Cheers,
Reinhold
