I find :export-rules too abstract. Unless a better name is proposed, I 
prefer :backends.

Vim for options allowing list of values has several options
:set opt=value1,value2 " assign new value
:set opt+=value " add to list
:set opt-=value " remove from list if it is there
:set opt& " reset to default value
I am unsure whether all variants should be implemented.

Certainly :export (:backends) is not the only property that should 
accumulate values.
