[Gmsh] Structured surface meshes and export to XYZ or structured CGNS

Hello,
This is my first message on the mailing list, so please apologize any
wandering off the Gmsh community culture ...
I want to create a structured/block-structured (obviously quads) surface
mesh and export it to either Plot3D XYZ format or to CGNS structured
format to use it as an input for another hyperbolic mesher.
Starting with a simple cube, I realized that:
- I could not find an exporter to Plot3D XYZ format (I yet have to see
if the P3D export format can be converted to XYZ)
- even for a simple transfinite surface mesh on a cube face, I get an
unstructured CGNS mesh when exported ('Unstructured' is in plain text in
the exported file and the hyperbolic mesher complains about that since
it expects a structured mesh).
Am I missing something or hitting a Gmsh limit?
Best regards,
