Just make sure you look in the right place ... :-)

I follow the LO dev mailing list, and last I remember (probably mid last
year) it was a bit of a mess with some filters importing vectors
unchanged, and other filters converting it to internal LO structures.
And it was a bit of a russian roulette which one was applied to your file.

I know the aim was to clean it up, and it was clear that stuff imported
should NOT be converted unless/until the user tried to edit it, but I
don't know where that went.

(Oh, and it should be renamed LO-lilypond, seeing as OO is - to all
intents and purposes nowadays - dead in the water.)

Cheers,
