Great, thanks!

hmm, no tented vias - I think one our official user script examples will 
be a script that loops over all vias and adds or removes the solder mask 
shapes (converting them from/to tented).

Hmm, I don't see any GML file exported by this job. Is that a gerber file? 
If so, you can easily get pcb-rnd to export any slots there by appending 
the uroute and prioute mech layer groups there with commas.
 
If this is resolved and the preview is correct, I'd include this job in 
the standard distribution.
