Bug Description
In the export bitmap dialog there are buttons for Page, Drawing, Selection and Custom.
If no object is selected, if one pushes the Selection button, nothing happens.
Usually when a action is currently not possible to do, it is grayed out. Compare with the Add and Remove buttons in the gtkfilechooser for example.

Consider this sequence:
1) no object is selected
2) the Selection button is pushed -- no difference to the export area
3) a selection is made -- the export area changes immediately
It seems to me that pushing the Selection button has an effect even if there currently is no selection, and therefore it shouldn't be grayed out.
Do you see any further advantage in graying it out?
