Fair enough -- that's far more flexible than what I did. I did the hack months ago, when the documentation of the new exporter hadn't been written. I never would have guessed that solution, based on the docstrings available at the time.

FWIW, I wasn't submitting the patch for inclusion. It's only that a patch was the easiest way to show the change. I guess I should have said so specifically, since it's natural to assume that a patch posted to the list is a proposal for a (permanent) change. Not my intent here.
