I have tried to write a tool in Python to (re-)indent lilypond source

Nice! If it works well, this would satisfy
http://code.google.com/p/lilypond/issues/detail?id=777
I also see there Wilbert Berendsen already wrote a similar, but more
advanced, python script ( indent.py ). Might work better than mine. Give
them both a try I would say to everyone.
Would be nice if he could also integrate such functionality in
Frescobaldi: Be able to re-indent a complete score with a mouseclick from
inside the Frescobaldi screen would be great ! ( Just like indent-ly has
been integrated into frescobaldi.) Or is it already possible ?
The default for lilypond files is two-space indents.
Is that official and written in the docs, or just common practice ?
Lilypond itself does not write lilypond files, it just reads them. So it
does not have a default indentation.
I have tried different tools ( frescobaldi, lilypondtool, nted,
noteedit, mscore, canorus, rosegarden, vim ) and they don't seem to agree
when it comes to indenting style.
