In the next version, this is going to work as follows:

The command org-export-copy-visible no longer exists.

Instead there is a new command org-export-visible, bound to C-c C-x v.
When using this command, you are prompted for another key, to specify 
the true export command.  Org-mode will then make a temporary buffer 
containing the visible part of the current buffer only, and export this 
buffer to ascii, html, xoxo.
