just my 2 cents: I think the new error message is very nice and helpful,
UNLESS you work on a bigger document, narrow your buffer and try to
export the narrowed portion of the document.
This does not work anymore.
I can agree with D. C. Toedt that it would be nice to have an easy way
to customize this behaviour of the exporter.
