We manage our municipal utility data using ArcGIS Online, and our field crew uses high accuracy GPS equipment to locate features in the field and also collects and attaches photos to the features. The photo attachments greatly increases the total size of the geodatabase. I frequently export the geodatabase to store local copies for backup, and I need a way to just export the features and exclude the attachments. With attachments, the .gdb is over 1GB, without its only 150mb or so. Please add an option to export a feature service to .gdb without attachments.

There are workarounds, however, it would be nice if Item export() supported this directly.
