Agree completely about exporting button/UI naming conventions.
Cam, plz add this to the patch tracker.

Nice!  Thanks.

Looking at this feature, I wonder if we should make the parameter
names resemble what the user sees in the Prefs Window rather 
than exporting internal blender variables.  I realize we
have some historical baggage here that we need to support.

However, as a future position, I would suggest deriving all parameter
names as the button label ( yfexport, fonts, textures, tex plugins, etc)
with 'dir' appended.  Examples: yfexportdir, texpluginsdir.

Some params, but not all, use this pattern already.
Some in the patch are similar, but not exact.  Fonts vs fontdir, for
example.

Thoughts, anyone?
