Boundary Lines get lost in XML Exports

NetBox version

v4.3.7

Topology Views version

v4.3.0

Steps to Reproduce

1. Download Topology as XML
2. Open .xml in draw.io

Expected Behavior

The boundary Lines which are shown in Topology Views in Netbox, should be also shown in the .xml download.

Observed Behavior

In draw.io there are no boundary lines.

Topology Views in Netbox:

draw.io

The boundary lines don't really get lost. They simply do not exist when the export happens. In fact the export is not WYSIWYG. It is a representation of the stored data, while the boundary lines are added dynamically.

While it's not impossible to create an export from the displayed view it would need a completely different approach. I don't see how the benefits would justify the effort here. But if anyone would like to volunteer, please raise your hand.
