No. Just export them. Back to my helicopter:

I select 15 objects (fueslage, tail boom, left stab, ...), then I
call the archimapper, which unwraps them and -- thanks to your
recent commit -- also nicely packs them all onto one virtual
texture square.

And now I want to export the uv mappings of those same 15 objects
to only *one* image file (*.tga). Currently, uv_export.py would
generate 15(!) tga files. Sure, I can load the 15 files into
GIMP/krita and merge them there, but I find that quite bothersome,
and a change to the script is comparatively trivial.

No. The FlightGear simulator doesn't support Blender's procedural
textures.
