Description

I'm new to CadQuery, trying to transition from FreeCAD to carry out some modelling automation/operations.

I've managed to load a STEP file, and export it as an STL:
```py
result = cq.importers.importStep("data/" + step_file)
cq.exporters.export(result, "data/" + stl)
```
What I couldn't quite find on the documentation is whether it is also possible to export an STL for each shape/object individually? E.g. if the STEP consists of 3 cubes, I should get 3 separate STLs.
