The main disadvantage of this solution is that it would require every user
to have a lilypond binary somewhere to produce ePub, as all steps of a
conversion are always performed (if I'm not mistaken). Or is it acceptable
to run LilyPond always if it's available (even if it doesn't do anything)
and to skip this step if it's not available?
