You're right - it is good.

It'd be mostly code, as the person who made it (Reinhold Kainhofer) is no 
longer involved in the project.

This is foreign territory to me.

Python is a great tool for XML creation.  There is also 
http://okmij.org/ftp/Scheme/xml.html.  The advantage of doing it in Scheme is 
that you are building it directly into LilyPond.  I'd take a stab in the dark 
and guesstimate that 60% of the LilyPond user base that needs MusicXML export 
would not be comfortable running a Python script.
