that's great to know!

interesting thought. but doesn't it make more sense to have the export menu 
for RMarkdown files where all other export options usually are? i.e., i didn't 
even tell you where to look but it seems you were able to find and use it.

i can however see that it can be helpful to have a special context menu if the 
currently active editor window is markdown, including a direct launcher for 
the export plugin. so i wouldn't add a new permanent menu category, but rather 
let RKWard detect the file type and produce a context sensitive submenu like 
it already does for R code, help pages or data frames.
