I use vim for everything except large Lilypond projects that consist of
multiple input files. The ability to click on an object in the score and
jump to that place in the code, even if the file containing that code is
not open, outweighs for me vim's advantages as a text editor, but I also
have not spent much time trying to come up with an alternative solution
in vim. How do you angle this.

I'd be interested to see one of your Makefiles.
