Is this effort all about creating stylesheets (i.e., customizing the 
look-and-feel of scores via \overrides, fonts, etc.) or templates 
(i.e., the structure of the scores)? I can see arguments for both and I 
think they would both be useful, especially for folks transitioning 
from GUI notation programs. Actually, more and more, I've started to 
feel like this is more of a necessity, but that discussion is for 
another day/thread.

I think this discussion is perfect, I just want to make sure we are all 
on the same page and driving to the same outcome that Kieren is 
proposing here. Ultimately, when it comes to templates, I don't see any 
reason why a standard set of these can't be included in LilyPond itself 
for the user to access, but maybe that's more for something like 
Frescobaldi. I mean, if all the GUI programs can do it, why not 
LilyPond? I know there are lots of examples in the docs (which is fine 
for me since I use the docs constantly), but to be able to open an 
actual file with a lot of the structure already created, where a user 
can then customize as necessary, I would think, could be very useful, 
especially to newcomers.
