This one is a real annoyance, and there was discussion about it last
week. As you point out, it is absolutely unrecoverable by any other
means.

Since /var/lib/nfs/rmtab holds the resolved client address, why not
preserve and re-read this file when 'kexport -a' is executed?

BTW, G. Allen, your mail address does not resolve for me..
