Just after hitting "send" I realized that I forgot to attach the log, but 
then I had to leave. Here it comes.

A flag that tells that this format should not be used for exporting (and 
neither for viewing, since only exportable formats can be viewed)

It is independent of your patch. I wanted to do this for a long time, and 
it is useful in its own right (get rid of hardcoded stuff). Your patch is 
still needed (except the configure.py part)

No, it is simply not needed. configure.py will not find the viewers on 
windows, and therefore the viewer will be empty.
We could think of removing windows viewers from configure.py to ensure 
this in all cases.
