Hi Adam,

EXPORT_OPTIONS are for the special case that you only export that specific subtree, by restricting the export to a tree using C-s in the dispatcher.  They do not modify the behavior of a tree in a larger export of the document, and they also should not do so IMO.  Generating a single document should follow one set of rules, not many.
