Hi, I have been looking into a similar issue. I noticed in the manual that there is binary option "Mesh.PartitionByExtrusion", which may achieve what you want. However, it seems that this option is no longer available on trunk (r12321).
My question to the list: Is there is any way to ensure that a particular geometric entity (whether extruded or otherwise) solely occupies a given partition of the mesh? Looking in DefaultOptions.h and searching on "part", doesn't seem to throw up any obvious answers.
