[Bf-python] Feature request: bPoseChannel pose_mat read access

[Gilbert, Joseph T.]

There should be a upcoming pose module that will address this issue.

One use case of the BPy interface is the export of armature animations.
An 
inconvenience with the current BPy interface is, that every time a user 
tweaks his animation, he has to bake it again before he is able to
export it.

As this is a repetitive task with no user interaction required, it
should be 
done by the export script itself. To do so, the script needs to
access the bPoseChannel's pose_mat (see [1]) for every bone while
sampling 
over the keyframe range via Blender.Set('curframe', i).

As far as I know, this is not possible with the current BPy interface. 
Therefore, it would be very nice if someone could add that.

Regards,
Michael
