Allow users to export only words added since last export
On the export words page, it would be good to be able to export only words that have been added since last export. This way if someone is building a list on cerego or memrise they don't double-add anything.

It would definitely be better to have a "only export words not yet exported" feature.
I am surprised that this is difficult to implement. On the Firelang extension exports to SRS default to only new words, but you also the option to export any words not exported since a particular date.
Isn't it just a matter of putting a timestamp next to words whenever they are exported?
I guess the easy solution is simply to delete all the words you have whenever you export, but that seems like a waste. What if you want to export them using different fields at a latter stage (e.g., cards with Cloze deletion, source URL etc?).

I agree that it would be very useful to be able to choose which words to export (either as "only since last export" or preferably even as a list with checkboxes)

I agree , you really need to be able to choose what to export to make this feature practical. Otherwise you could easily end up exporting huge word lists on a regular basis just to get 10 new words added to anki or similar.
Thanks
