If you extrude a surface instead of a curve it will be capped at both
ends. Thus, if your curve is flat, you can run it through a Surface
parameter before plugging it into Extrude.

I'll add the BothSides option to the wishpile.

It sounds like you need to convert your border curves into a trimmed
surface first. You can convert single planar curves into single
trimmed surfaces by running them through the Surface parameter. You
can convert multiple planar curves into (multiple?) trimmed surfaces
using the [Planar Srf] component.
