It's not missing anything, we purposefully left them out for several
reasons, one of which is the fact that the options would heavily
clutter the export dialog at little tangible benefit.

That said, we copied UFRaw's approach, of having a JPEG Quality slider
which affects the other settings in a sensible way:

if(quality > 90) jpg.cinfo.comp_info[0].v_samp_factor = 1;
if(quality > 92) jpg.cinfo.comp_info[0].h_samp_factor = 1;

So JPEG Quality 93 and higher have chroma subsampling disabled and
give fairly large files at very high quality.
JPEG Quality 91/92 only have horizontal chroma subsampling enabled,
which gives you a reasonable trade-off between quality and file size.
JPEG Quality 90 and lower have both horizontal and vertical
subsampling enabled, which gives you the smallest file sizes at lower
qualities.

Aside from that, we always generate optimized JPEGs and we don't
generate progressive JPEGs.
