The initial idea (now broken in lilypond-book) was for \lilypond{}
to be a friendly way to get inline notes, without parskip and whatnot.
Typing \lilypond{bes''} is a bit friendlier than
\begin[fragment]{lilypond}
bes''
\end{lilypond}
esp. within a paragraph.

I think it just broke because of the lilypond-book rewrite, and the
decision to require [fragment] explicitly.
