Can you batch export Telesis Netlists from a set of board files?

I have found batch functions to read in netlists to board files but not export them from board files. I know that manually running "Export > Netlist w/Properties" does what I need to do but I have to run this on 700+ boards and would rather not run it manually.

    I2C_SDA,R31.2 U1.C5 U5.4 U7.B2

    Which is useful but is not the same as a Telesis netlist.

    Try axlNetout("mynetlist.txt")
    If it's what you want raise a service request to make the command public.

    That is exactly what I'm looking for. Where would I go to raise a service request? I feel like this could be a real handy function to have publicly available. I don't think my problem is unique to just me.
