See Musescore. It uses Lilypond's Feta Font and has the
look and feel of Sibelius.

I think if Lilypondtool or Frescobaldi would allow you to
click-drag some of the grobs like dynamics and markup in the
preview pdf and automatically insert code to make the tweak,
that would be huge. (Plus maybe some way to click-drag an
entire system to tweak vertical spacing, though after looking
at the notation manual I have no idea how that could be
achieved.)
