Saving in other format, not only MIDI

Since MIDI cannot keep repeats, codas and other things that the music sheet has, can Noteworthy Composer also save to some common standard format like Music XML ?

I've just put a comment on the main forum regarding MusicXML. No support currently, but I think the clipboard format, and the fact that version 2 can import it as well as export, will make translation much easier. I'd like to have a go at it, but I've got too many other things on my plate at the moment.

I notice that NWC does indeed export repeats and other stuff:

Note groups with repeats are repeated anyway (audibly, but not visually when you open it again)

Stacatto notes are converted like so:
Stacatto quarter note > Eigth rest, eigth note

NWC compensates for that stuff
