Hi Javier,

>    I see two alternatives that can be combined.

I like your two alternatives, and the flexibility they bring.

The first one is what I was thinking when I wrote my message. I think 
this is good, and I could easily make a script that creates that custom 
attribute based on my own criteria too. So yes, I would add a button on 
the shelf and make the exporter recognize that custom attribute, but 
it's even more flexible than that.

The second one, I think, is covered by an optimizer in OSG 
(FlattenStaticTransforms), so perhaps we could just expose that 
optimizer flag (and others while we're at it) and run the optimizer on 
the created graph before saving. OSGExp (exporter for Max) does this. 
See the Optimize group in the export options panel:

http://sourceforge.net/apps/mediawiki/osgmaxexp/index.php?title=Documentation

Those checkboxes all equate to an osgUtil::Optimizer flag.
