Re: Lilypond users?
I tested Lilypond with Denemo, which is a different animal than Frescobaldi. I actually rather liked it, and if the competition had only been Sibelius I might have chosen Lilypond. But then I tried Dorico, and Dorico won.

Re: scordatura
It is a very unstandardized territory. Writing out the tuning of open strings is an elegant solution, but requires explanation later on whether the notation shows an actual pitch, or the position where the note would be in regular tuning with usual fingering.
