[PATCH] Export the XSLT based exports in a new Thread.

[Gehad Elrobey]

QTConcurrent run is async call, I tested this case on linux and the GUI is
closed while the main process waited for the exporting thread to finish. I
don't know how this will take place on different platforms, may be one who
is familiar with QTconcurrent can help.

I thought if I could just print the exporting status to the status bar
"Main error message widget" but I don't know if this breaks the convention
as this bar is expected to be for errors only?

regards,
Gehad
