You probably are NOT the first one needing it. But you are using IWP. You can't have your custom and instant, too. ;)
I don't know if it's deliberately "crippled", or if there was a choice made to cover the greatest 'ease-of-use'. If there is an export, where does it export to? The machine hosting the IWP, or the user viewing it in the browser? If it shows more than 25 records at a time, does it become so slow that the user thinks it's broken? Are you using IWP built-in navigation or your own? What happens if you use your own navigation and layouts and show a portal with more than 25 rows? Can you make a relationship to show related records from your found set?
