For alpha03, I suggest we exclude the matrix options section (only the whole matrix) and the show selections thing. In fact, I don't know if there's an option for page orientation - AND, with the format, if the user selects PNG, there's no "page" options at all...

[Christopher Keil]

Yea I just saw the comments. I'll create the export dialog accordingly. It can always be expanded with additional options with low effort of course.

[Robert Leach]

Merged to master. Some of the follow-on work to wrap this interface up completely has been incorporated into a separate issue: #370.
