I want to export my BPMN diagrams from Visio 2010 Premium to BPMN 2.0 XML format, which is not default supported by Microsoft, this is their answer:

So, I went searching for some third party plugins, what I found uptil now is only this:

It looks great, but alas, it does not generate proper XML diagrams that are accepted by an XML validator like this:

Does anyone know a method or plugin that does work?

Enterprise Studio supports importing BPMN model data in the following file formats: BPMN, Visio, and Lean.
You can save Visio files in XML format via File, Save As, or File, Save & Send, Change File Type. In the Save As dialog, look for the options XML Drawing, XML Stencil, or XML Template, depending on the file you are trying to save. Instead of . VSD, .
On the File tab, click Open and then browse to the location of the file that you want to import. In the Files of type box, click the file format of the file you want to import. If you don't see the file format listed, Visio doesn't have a file filter for that format. Try saving the document in a format Visio can open.
For anyone wondering how to do this, I found a commercial plugin which works very good from ITP Commerece, but alas (very) pricy for just needing to import and export BPMN:
