I don't think we have any utilities written in Guile/Scheme.  So the
likelihood of him being able to be better prepared to help other lily
devs is more than dubious.

For better or worse, the use of Guile in LilyPond is very much
constricted to LilyPond proper (in the form of libguile) rather than
general programming.  I think there is not much other than
lilypond-invoke-editor.scm actually written as a utility program in
Guile.
