Without knowing how the code is structured, it seems like these two effects could be merged into one by giving options for which of the two paths is used for styling, which is for content, and which is for shaping. As a programmer, I know that the code structure could make it impossible, so the point may be moot, but I thought I'd throw it out there.
Path parameters only contain path data (points), not style or anything. Ofcourse path parameters could be extended to include style data, but then still an LPE can only output points, not style data. The whole LPE system could be much larger better bigger, but I am already putting just about all my Inkscape time in it :-(
Ah, now I see why the two exist separately. I wasn't meaning to criticize the LPE system. I just thought I saw an opportunity for simplification. I realize features take time to develop, and I think the LPE system is a great feature already. :)
