Here's my use-case:
1. User sets up their view using the view's page display.
2. User clicks "export" which exports the configured view as a .csv using the view's data export display
3. All nodes that were part of the export should be flagged (taxonomy term set) as "exported"

Can anyone suggest a straightforward way of achieving this?

Thanks in advance,
Colin

I too have a requirement like this.

Not sure whether it would need nodes to be flagged before, after, or during the data gathering for the download. What if the download fails? What if new nodes that match the export filter arrive during the data gathering?

A work-around might be to:
1) Use Views Bulk Operations to mark all required nodes as "to be exported".
2) Use Views Data Export to export all nodes marked as "to be exported".
3) When you're happy that the export completed OK, use Views Bulk Operations to mark those nodes as "exported".
