New issue 1293 by brownian.box: lilypond-book should use "quote"
environment of LaTeX (instead of "quotation")
http://code.google.com/p/lilypond/issues/detail?id=1293
Reported by ncdallmann,

%-----------------8<------------------------
I always get a bad layout using the quote option, because it uses
the 'quotation' environment in LaTex, which implies an indention of the
first line in LaTex. This causes in all my documents and in a 'clean'
example, the first line of my lilypond-examples to be indented without
adjusting the line-length. But Lilypond should set the indentation, not
LaTex. So I think using \begin{quotation} ... \end{quotation} is a bad
choice. In my opinion the quote environment should use \begin{quote} ...
\end{quote}.

Original example:
%-----------------8<------------------------
\documentclass[a4paper]{article}
\begin{document}
\begin[quote]{lilypond}
{
c'4 d' e' f'
g' a' b' c''
d'' e'' f'' g''
a'' b'' c'''2
c'''4 b'' a'' g''
f'' e'' d'' c''
b' a' g' f'
e' d' c'2
}
\end{lilypond}
\end{document}
%-----------------8<------------------------
I've attached proposed change (as a diff) and two images.
