Wow, it would be great to do that wouldn't it! And its great to know
NtEd does so. 

Unfortunately there are technical restrictions getting lilypond imported
to nted, since lilypond does not yet export musicxml (although this is
being discussed, to allow, among other things, export of lilypond to
braille). 

In the mean time, it should be possible to import midi into nted in 
order to produce the "running note" automation, but unfortunately, the
resultant score will be generated by nted and will probably require 
tweaks in an attempt to match the original. 

Unfortunately, other techniques for generating "running note" automation
such as modifying lilypond itself, are currently beyond the scope of this
project.

If however you can live without the "running note" automation,
ob-lilypond can already render as score, and play as sound
simultaneously.

See http://github.com/mjago/ob-lilypond for more details.

Regards

Martyn
