It may be possible to extend TeXShop in order to make it LilyPond
syntax aware, and launch lilypond instead of pdftex or pdflatex (if
direct PDF output is possible on MacOSX). I'm writing to the authors
in order to ask them what they think the involved work could be, and
which tracks to follow.

Maybe point-on-click on the PDF output could work also inside
TeXShop.

That would make a good start for a LilyPond.app, with native look and
feel.
