Export can be don through Tags/Labels Assignment.

1/ Only single selection is possible from thumb-bar. So multiple selection must be implemented before.

2/ Another way is to add a new menu entry where assignment can be done to whole thumb-bar content as well.

I vote for 2/; which is more easy to implement and as less side-effects than to touch on current thumb-bar behavior.

Maik,

From comment #1, point 2/ is not to difficult to implement. Typically, get thumb-bar contents, and apply a common  label which can be handle through Labels view from left sidebar and assigned to BQM or processed by kipi tools.

Note : the export function is not yet implemented in BQM, but a file about this topic already exist.

Implemented in 7.0/0

From LightTable, select Export/to Local Storage option, and Select list of item to export somewhere from LightTable instance. You can also tune export settings to convert file in other format.
