Digital music edition is a rather broad field and there exists a very active 
scholarly community around it. You nay want to have a look at 
http://music-encoding.org. 

With regard to SVG rendering there is Verovio, a tool that can provide instant 
rendering of scores (encoded in XMK) including reflowing directly in a browser.
There are even examples where you can edit the score in the browser and the 
changes are written back into the XML.

You may also have a look at http://beethovens-werkstatt.de/demo which goes as 
far as to switch elements *within the scanned autograph*.

LilyPond’s largest drawback compared to that context is the static nature of 
the compilation.  However, there's a really strong point in using LilyPond in 
that context: the engraving quality, combined with its text based nature and 
the option of strict separation of content and presentation. There's currently 
no tool to produce professional engraving from digital encodings, and LilyPond 
will hopefully be the solution to that. Several projects are under way to that 
end.
