>- Do you export once in the end, or do you do tests in 
>between?

Both

>- Do you work with stereo and/or multi-channel?

Both again, though Multichannel more often

>- What are your targets: CD, DVD, Web?

Yes, as well as multichannel files, or multiple files making up a 
multichannel mix(Will explain)

>- File-types: WAV, Flac, Ogg, MP3?

In general that covers it, though AAC and AIFF are not nessecarily bad 
to look at.  In general Wav and FLAC covers me.

>- Bits and sampling rates you need?

24/96 is as high as I go in general.  Obviously your standard 16/44.1 
16/48, etc. as well

>- Do you or would you like to export to several formats at 
>once? If yes, which exactly?

Again Wav or FLAC and a compressed format for preview purposes would fit 
nicely for me.  Particularly for web distribution, so I can link to 
download the full quality or preview it.

>- Do you know of outstanding solutions in any application?

Nothing I would call outstanding sorry.

>- What problems do you run into?

The ability to seperate multiple outputs over multiple files.

Explanation:

Since I work in Live theater, as a Sound Designer, often times i am 
using a playback device or software for my playback.  Not all of these 
can understand multichannel files, but often at least with the software 
I have the option of starting a playback of multiple stereo wav files at 
once for the same effect.  Thus the ability to with ease export to 
multiple stereo wav files would be great.

>- Wishlist items?
>

See above, but give me enough time and I am sure I can come up with more;)

>- If you use Jamin, do you feed it with multitrack material 
>or rather with mixdowns?

Don't use it so much, I really should dig into it.  Sorry.
