What: Command to export the diagram as a graphic. SVG is preferable as its easy and ~free, but PNG will be more popular.
Why: People will want to share their good work with others

This would be wonderful! FYI, the draw.io VSCODE extension (hediet.vscode-drawio) can save drawings as a PNG or SVG with the source code for that drawing embedded in the image file.

This allows you to have a single source of truth in your version control for both the rendered image and the source for the rendered image. You can then reference that same file in your repo markdown docs for visual display. I would love this for SCXML based diagrams!

@benstechlab I can imagine an SVG diagram embedding the SCXML within the XML under its separate namespace. Is this what you're describing? Or are you suggesting (as I can't imagine any other way to do it) that an image of the XML code is present in the diagram?
