I've been using TeXShop as my lilypond editor for a while now. And yes, I edited the engine script to include '-I/Users/myUserName/Library/LilyPond/includes' as an option, so that a couple of my own files that I often use can be included from anywhere without long (and machine-specific) paths in the source files. (Replacing '/Users/myUserName' by '~' doesn't seem to work in this context; I'm not sure why.) It does seem odd that LilyPond currently has no standard paths for installation-specific includes: I would have expected at least one system-wide one (somewhere in /usr/local or /usr/share on a generic UNIX, somewhere in /Library on OS X) and one user-specific one (somewhere in ~/Library on OS X).
