Bulk "Don't Save" – Bulk "Export"
InDesign has an irritating habit of forcing us to the "Don't Save / Cancel / Save" dialogue when we haven't even touched the file. This can be frustrating when I have many files open for, say, a bulk export to JPG (which is provided by a nifty script that you should really incorporate as well). I want to close all the 30 files, but even though all I did was export, I must respond to the same dialogue box 30 times.
Therefore: We need a "Don't Save All Open Files" option when closing windows.
We also need a "Export All Open Files To" option. Then you can specify file format, resolution, etc., all at once.

I agree with you. By exporting to a different location or file format you actually "touched" your file. ;)
If I have to export various files at once I always use Peter Kahrel's magnificent "Batch Convert" script. I don't know if you're referring to that.
