I thought that if it was run from the LilyPad app bundle, it would just
silently update the whole file (I don't like that behavior, but it seemed
to be design in LilyPad).  I'll admit that I haven't tested it thoroughly,
though; if you run it from within Frescobaldi, you at least see the diff.
Is it missing syntax differences?  If so, I'd appreciate a sample file that
it's not behaving properly on.

Not a huge problem, since any instances of the old syntax (2.18.2) get

If convert-ly is working properly, there shouldn't *be* any of the old
syntax left.  If there are, that *is* a huge problem and means that the
version I packaged is broken.  Is that the case?
