Yes, this assumption is incorrect. The export process operates on
a parse tree, and doesn't need to move point at all. Current buffer is
not even the original buffer.

You may use hooks that are run before parsing happens, i.e.,
`org-export-before-parsing-hook' and `org-export-before-processing-hook.
I didn't look at your export function, so take my advice with a grain of
salt.
