Well. I do consider this a bug. However, it is not easy to fix.
`org-export-output-file-name' is used across all ox-*.el backends,
including third-party packages, and it is called before we can determine
which parts of the exported file are going to be really exported.
I recommend you to use :EXPORT_FILE_NAME: headline property and export
using subtree scope.

There should be no other buffer setting that is taken into account
in COMMENTed subtrees. EXPORT_FILE_NAME is the only one.
I think that we should not really change the manual unless we have to.
It will be better to fix the bug instead.
