I am not working on Taskjuggler exporter.  I do have a FreeMind exporter
in the works.  

That said, moving the TaskJuggler exporter to new org-export-* APIs -
Nicolas calls them tools - is "a good thing".  Each new exporter,
exercises or emphasizes different aspects of the export infrastructure.
I am sure "porting" TaskJuggler will further solidify the org-export
framework in terms of exposing existing bugs or adding new utilties or
APIs.

        http://orgmode.org/worg/dev/org-export-reference.html

If TaskJuggler exporter "just works", then it is good.  The porting task
can be done in an un-hurried manner.
