I did some light testing on HPGL but I'm pretty confident stuff didn't broke...

Please elaborate on this... I did tracks as lines because polylines with width 
in DXF are strictly butt-ended (not rounded). We *could* approximate it with 
SOLID and DONUT but these are really rarely used primitives and I doubt that 
they'll be imported by something different than acad...

Anyway tell your suggestions and I'll see what can be done. Another interesting 
thing to do would be exporting text as text (as an option) instead of segments 
and make use of layers: for example a silk plot with references and values on 
another layer would be wonderful for assembly diagrams (taken to an extreme: 
export components as block instances with attributes and you'll have the pick 
and place and bom directly from autocad...).

I'm open to suggestion (also I'm somewhat surprised that someone else actually 
use the dxf exporterXD)
