The only entry there is

LSHandlerContentType com.unknown.ly
LSHandlerRoleAll com.macromates.textmate.preview

Which doesn't look like LilyPond.app responsible for opening textedit:// files.

Everything else is completely unrelated.

Unfortunately it seems like that plist does not contain the whole truth. Try `locate lsregister` -dump > lsinfo.txt and search for LilyPond. That shows (among lots of other things) the following:

claim id:            52580

name:          text editor via url

rank:          Default

roles:         Editor  

flags:         url-type  

icon:          

bindings:      textedit:

Changing the url handler is probably easiest done with duti.
