My post was one year old.
In the meantime you can check these two posts in archives by Jayme (I cc
him):
https://lists.ovirt.org/archives/list/users@ovirt.org/thread/U65CV5A6WC6SCB2R5N66Y7HPXQ3ZQT2H/#FAVZG32TPSX67DTXIHMGIQXUXNG3W3OE
and
https://lists.ovirt.org/archives/list/users@ovirt.org/message/JNSY6GYNS6LPNUJXERUO2EOG5F3P7B2M/

In the first post it appears that by default the exports were of type fire
and forget (that is what you need) and so he included a wait_for task to
instead have them sequential.
I think you can borrow from his github playbooks and adapt to your needs.
Or Jayme, you could apply a general change where you set a variable (eg
sequential_flow) that by default is true and then you modify the
export_vm.yml playbook in the task

- name: "Wait for export"

with the wait condition becoming of kind

when: (export_result is not failed) or (sequential_flow|bool == False)

This way by default the play workflow remains unchanged, but a user can set
sequential_flow to False
What do you think about it?
Gianluca
