That's actually a weird imposed limitation. Why prevent that? If you think staff might steal articles by exporting them from a website just make a administrator restriction setting so only authorized people have access to that option.

I ran into a problem myself with this but it wasn't worth the hassle since my database had only 100 entries, so I just sat down and copy it all 1 by 1 into another database manually.

Yes, the intention was for this to be used for a staging -> production type model where you might build out a database and custom templates on a test installation, and then want to install that on a production installation. 99% of the time in this scenario, you don't want to bring across the content, just the setup/structure.
