Comment:

 I agree. We should be throwing errors from `export_wp()` instead of
 exporting unexpected data, even if that odd behavior is properly
 documented now.

 The current export UI in the admin doesn't show any post types which don't
 have `can_export` set to `true`. This would only be a possible issue for
 other external direct calls to `export_wp()`, so there wouldn't be any
 design work involved here.
