Here's what I'm thinking.
Each LP example in the docs has a real source file associated with it,
right? So,...
1. Put LilyBin functionality at live.lilypond.org
2. Put all the doc's source files in a directory structure that the new
site can access (ideally, through a web-navigate-able directory tree)
3. Place a "Try this live!" link next to each score example in the docs (or
the image hyperlink) that points to the specific file in #2 that the
visitor can play around with (but can't save over), rather than just
linking to a plain text file
This is a wish list, of course, but could be a very cool feature for
new/potential users wanting to get their feet wet.
Best,
Abraham
