An export/backup feature would also be nice. Don't wanna have to trust your average SaaS provider keeping your important stuff backed up properly. ;-)

Good point, we have export on our roadmap. (Of course we use replication and perform daily backups to S3, but I understand your concerns nevertheless)

What kind of export would you like to see? Exporting the whole content of a team as HTML, generating PDFs for all the pages, generating Markdown files? Any preferences?

Probably something more semantically structured than HTML. Markdown could be an option. Maybe something that could be reimported for a 'rogue employee gone mad' scenario?

Definitely Markdown, then one can always convert back and forth other formats (e.g. using Pandoc).
