Lilypond continues, I hope, to give the line numbers of included files, so the products of sly will have the line number, but lilypond may add the '\include' line. There was some issue with that, and I don't recall now whether that was considered a bug and fixed or not. That means that if your header were 3 lines long, and if you did not use lines without search specs, the line number would be times 3 and plus one to three, and possibly plus one for the \include line. If you have a dummy field for numbers in the sly file, that will locate the line-group and the filename will locate the field in it. Numbering automatically will be done when I can dump an edited sly file. I can't do that yet. It requires rebuilding a sly file from parts and header. Of course if you can put all your fields on one line, then lilypond will give the line number plus one for the header and maybe one for the \include line. You could also flatfile as you go, of course. In that case point-and-click would surely work. I have never used it. I don't know whether it does \included files. -- It's not that hard to understand the lesson of Viet Nam.
