This is fairly normal and I would want to maintain a clear distinction between things that let you work with LilyPond to do what *you* want, and things that either (a) have no functional use (e.g., postings of LilyPond-engraved works), or (b) are limited-scope utilities (such as Scale Matcher), particularly in the latter case so that someone doesn't go to the site mistakenly thinking they can use it to do x (in spite of clear disclaimers to the contrary).
