So what are the actual problems?  Is LilyPond really too difficult?
Do we rely too much on crufty input-language solutions?  How many
ritardando-like hacks do we have for common problems?  Are they
listed/categorised somewhere?

Maybe it's just that we are not tempting enough to be used.
I cannot imagine that OP would have stopped with a frustating
message to sibelius-user after having paid $$$$ for the program?
That would me he basically threw away that money.  Quitting with
LilyPond seems to cost him nothing.  He only gets uglier scores
and does not care about the end result, maintainability, shareability,
or the social impact/implications of spending money on proprietary
software as opposed to devising and documenting solutions for
a free software?

How about a frogs project to make our image sexier?

Greetings,
Jan.
