Yes, currently there is the 4 sort field limit. A custom handler could be built that allows for unlimited sorts or you could provide a patch to the export handler.
I think though that you'll find that performance drops off quite a bit as the number of sort fields increases. This is because each field needs to be retrieved from the docValues cache in order to perform the sort.
