OK, I was on my proper computer for the first time now since this thread restarted. I checked with LibreOffice 5.2.4 and could properly include a LilyPond-generated .eps graphic and export the whole document to PDF without obvious issues. So it should be possible to make OOLilyPond use vector graphics for its snippets. I think this would be a terrific feature for all those who need to include music fragments in text documents and aren't ready to take the plunge to use LaTeX. I think this should be a real incentive for (academic) music teachers to promote the use of LibreOffice and LilyPond. So it would be really great to pick up this extension and make it usable again.
