Uhh, what would be the point of that? You can already easily
"transplant" your history.

Just go to your User Data directory (you should know where to find it.
If not, Google its location), then copy every file with the word
"History" in it. Save them somewhere safe, then paste them into your
new User Data directory on your new OS. That's all you have to do.
Someone in one of the comments for the bug report even pointed-out
that you should do that.

But if you're looking for a front-end "history export" feature - that
is not a good idea.  If it was exportable, then the individual History
files that make up your browsing history would have to be consolidated
into a single file (they're separated by month), and I do not believe
that would be feasible, for multiple reasons. And there's no browser
out there, that I know of, that lets you import your browser history
by importing a file - they all work off of detecting the other
browsers on your machine, and having routines to import from them.

All in all, I doubt it's gonna happen. So don't count on it - just
copy the History files, and you'll be good.
