For a user inexperienced new Lilypond user in programming (deal with text and editors) I think he/she should make contact as fast as possible with something like LilyPondTool. In this respect I think this way should be as easy as possible for this type of new user. Later he/she can choose a different method, but it's not likely that he/she will stick with Lilypond if things become to uncommon in a first moment. It's nice because it facilitate some common troubles for new-users and it run on all platforms. I'm not saying it's the "best" editor, but it's the best one for a first experience with Lilypond, in my opinion. I like Emacs, I'm waiting to see more functionalities in Emacs/lilypond-mode (maybe someone is doing extensions to lilypond-mode right now???), but JEdit/Lilypond is running faster, I think.
