Hi,

I met with customer request to add lines to csv in export. I added them to table, so "Export report" works. "Export data" doesn't, of course. 

I know I can programme and change this report after export somewhere (in filters?). But what about to have another event afterExport. Maybe there could be afterExportReport, afterExportData. And if there is after, also "before" event could be.
I see advantage in custom arrangments with exported object(excel document, txt file) before sending. I imagine "this" object would be that object.


Reproducible: Always
