To make it work well, we also need to allow configuring the depth of the dependencies, and the list of reference fields to skip from exporting, because without this can produce a huge amount of unnecessary entities and even circular redirects. As an example of how to resolve this issue, we can look at this implementation: β¨ Allow to partially export content Active

Good point about the circular dependencies, we should ensure we specifically test that.
I think allowing fields to opt out of being exported should be admin configurable and happen in a follow-up, as it might have some additional complexity best handled separately.
As for dependency depth control β why? What would the use case be for such a thing?

About the depth - let's imagine a "page" node which has a reference field "related_articles" with several articles, and each article has a field "related_pages" linked to some pages - by exporting this, we can get a pretty long nested structure, and even loops.
