Description

What file type
.mxl .musicxml

What application is using it
LilyPond, MuseScore

Motivation
It would be really nice beeing able to open those kind of files with the viewer app.

Since the trend is going to pro-only for online sheet music communities (MuseScore.com) it would be cool to have free alternative.

Research direction

The issue does not name any files, tests, or entry points. Start by locating the viewer's handling for supported file types, then determine how .mxl and .musicxml files should be opened and displayed; done means both extensions work in the viewer with appropriate MusicXML rendering.
