Sounds reasonable... Have an example for anything in pythonOCC to anything else? are any of the existing exporters done that way?
For .obj text file it can also just be sort out points defining faces and output text to define a bare bones .OBJ file. The add material properties afterward manually if that is difficult to tease out of OCC. Are attributes like material and surface texture easy to grab in pythonOCC?

My particular use of .OBJ is still in b-rep form without extra tesselation into triangles. Can't use generic STL triangles at all.
