+ * The GraphML exporter (design section 8.5; research note 07 section 9): `<key>` declarations
+ * regenerated from ColumnMeta.origin when the column came from GraphML (key id, attr.name,
+ * attr.type, yfiles.type) and derived from the dtype otherwise; node ids sanitised to NMTOKEN
+ * (`sanitizeIds: "error"` refuses, `"mangle"` rewrites and keeps the original in a
+ * `graphty:originalId` data attribute the importer restores); mixed direction written with
+ * `edgedefault` plus per-edge `directed` attributes, folding expanded pairs back through the
+ * `pair` / `directed` role columns; explicit weights only (the role-weight column's validity);
+ * containment (`parent` role) as nested graphs; yFiles json columns as nested XML again.
+ *
+ * check() lists every loss before anything is written: the generic capability gaps of
+ * checkCapabilities() (dict / u32 / u8 dtypes, lists, components, options, positions, visual and
+ * temporal roles, extension tables) plus the GraphML-specific ones (mutual edges written as
+ * undirected, json columns without a yfiles origin written as JSON text, multi-parent columns,
+ * containment order, ids that change type under the canonical rule, edge ids that read back as
+ * strings, roles GraphML cannot express, yfiles values that are not serialisable trees).
