exporting xml elements to xref from respec?

The respec documentation says that one can export term definitions (ie, terms in an <dfn> element) by adding the class "export". So far so good and it works. However, it is not clear from the respec documentation whether the same class can be used to export an xml element defined in some xml application (or, for that matter, a json name in a json structure). Is there a way to do that?

Thanks

Ivan
