   Thanks @samskalicky, this would sound like an interesting feature for 
Sockeye as well. In Sockeye, we use a mix of Hybrid and non-Hybrid blocks, both 
during training and inference. We currently do not use the export mechanism of 
Gluon, but keep our own configuration file to build the model graph at 
inference time, according to its specifications, we therefore tie code and 
model artifacts closely together. An export functionality that would allow us 
to export the inference computation after training sounds useful.
   
   My main question about this though would be how exported HybridBlocks (i.e. 
SymbolBlocks) behave w.r.t changing input shapes? Before Gluon, we had to make 
heavy use of the BucketingModule in MXNet to account for varying shapes at 
inference time.
