Hey, I just discovered that the PDF file has links from notes to their entries 
in the source file (if both the PDF and the source file in Lilypond are open); 
cool! Is this a new feature, or am I just showing my ignorance here? ;-)

It's been in the product a while.

It does make the PDFs significantly larger in some cases, but you can simply 
add an explicit function to the .ly file.

add \pointAndClickOff to the .ly file (and comment it out when you want it 
back).

It caused some issues when I gave PDFs to less technically minded friends who 
use Windows and their PDF viewer would 'tooltip' every single note head on the 
music as their cursor ran across the page, with the 'URL' to my .ly file on my 
own machine. So I remember to turn it off for that final compilation.

PS you can also use \pointAndClickOn (and comment it out) if you prefer that 
way.
