    I found that users can export CSV files multiple times without any restriction. This could lead to data misuse or unnecessary load on the system.

    Can we implement a limit on the number of CSV exports per user or per session?

    No this is not planned.
    And I have no clue how this could be implemented, if you want to implement it

    I guess technically speaking you could keep track of how many times a URL (pattern) was accessed during a user session. (something I've planned for my Account Security extension).

    Then again, the user could simply log in again; so it would already need to consider all user sessions. I'm not sure this kind of limitation would add real security since this assumes the account is already compromised and/or being abused; and the data could then be extracted in numerous ways.
