What if all our python scripts were named .pylily (or .pyly whatever)
and bind .pylily to LilyPond's python.  Wouldn't that work?

However, I think we should strive to have python-version-independent
python scripts, that should be doable too.  See the TODO in GUB
and the actual code for a list of tricks needed to support python2+3.
