The problem here is that the preview has to be generated with lilypond,
not LaTeX. This is usually the realm of the external inset.

However, the user wanted to edit the source code inside LyX instead of an
external file. Maybe it is simpler to allow "inline source" in an
external inset than "external preview" in an InsetFlex.
