(Using a fixed > line-width in LilyPond avoids the need to scale them or anything like that.) That's my approach as well (though I don't use Frescobaldi, just lilypond with the eps backend). lilypond-book might work when the main content of the book is music, and therefore most of the changes requiring recompilation are in lilypond source. But it is ill-suited to the case where the musical content is largely fixed while the text is in flux. As Kevin says, something similar to Tikz would be more flexible: LaTeX calling lilypond, rather than lilypond preprocessing the LaTeX source. Even then, something like Tikz externalisation would be wanted to stop large music excerpts being recompiled unnecessarily.
