True, it should be named differently, e.g. --ignore.
Another idea: would it make sense to have an attribute for that instead
(or in addition to the command line parameter)? I.e. files marked
export-ignore would not end up in the archive. I suspect the set of
files to ignore doesn't change from archive to archive one creates.
