This would create hassle with tarball rolling (i.e. specifying
subdirectories in Documentation/snippets/GNUmakefile and makefiles in
subdirectories just for distributing files!).

I'm happier with 2), this is what makelsr.py already does among other
things.  We could also have makelsr.py write in
$LILYPOND_GIT/Documentation/snippets convert-lyed incarnations of
snippets and copy snippets from Documentation/new; with this scheme, the
only difference with existing scheme would be that the inclusion of
translations in .texidoc files would not be done in source files.

Cheers,
John
