For example:

Q: Does imessage-exporter export message conversations that are on a user's iPhone but not mirrored on the user's otherwise in-sync Mac?
A: No, the user will have to ensure that iPhone conversations are each mirrored onto their Mac before they attempt export

Q: Can you run expert again and again? How does the exporter handle previously exported messages
A: imessage-exporter merges in missing messages for each conversation.

Q: If an export is done. then message(s) are deleted through Apple's messages apps, does a subsequent export delete the same messages from the export file set?
A: No, the exporter does not replicate deletes onto a previous exported set of files

Yeah, this is a good idea. Between your suggestions and the two Reddit threads I have a lot of questions to add.
