2D Export File Formats

I use OpenSCAD a lot for generating files for my laser engraver and I use a program called Lightburn.  The Lightburn files are just XML so I was wondering if there was an option to request an export added for Lightburn file format.  I had a quick look at the OpenSCAD source and it looks like it is written in C, it has been 20+ years since I have touched C so it probably not something I am able to tackle. Lightburn does import svg files but I would really like to be export directly to Lightburn.
