However, for my use case, it also suffers from another problem I discussed before for the extension, namely that it produces a single path. I need separate objects, to be able to set different fill styles.
That is the point of path effects. It keeps a path as a path.
If you want to create a number of different paths, use the pattern along path extension then perform a Path->Break Apart to separate the individual paths so they can be coloured individually.
