That would be possible, but as I export the page in the context of the 
page itself it would be very difficult to render complete different 
content for a pagetype which only delivers the urls of export-pages

for a first iteration with an external tool I did something like this. I 
created pages with google-sitemaps of subtrees, including a 
pseudo-subtree for the newspages. but that is on a complete different 
subtree.
now the export is initiated in the BE at the page itself.

I think I don't get it.
can you be more specific? an example?
