When exporting a geo map like http://jsfiddle.net/4yq8dpe5/ the CSV contains:

"Category","Random data"
0,0
1,1337
2,
3,
4,
5,
6,
7,
8,
9,
10,
11,
12,
13,
14,
15,
16,
17,
18,
19,
20,
21,
22,
23,
24,
25,
26,
27,
28,

Where countries without values are included and the category key is equal to their index.

Is this intentional?
Is there a way to configure the chart so that the exported CSV format is { hc-key: value }?

Would appreciate any clarification. Thanks!

I fixed the missing country names in 3f06ef6d807383. Regarding the missing values, would you expect the null values to be skipped altogether?

Awesome, thanks for the fix @TorsteinHonsi. I don't have much of an opinion on handling null values as long as its consistent across visualization types. Feel free to close this issue.
