It seems that the new Polyextrude node ignores any normals that you create explicitly. For example, see attached file.
I create some point normals, and then use Polyextrude to extrude using “Extrusion Mode = Point Normals”. However, the resulting extrusion ignores the point normals I created.
Is this behaviour correct?

It probably is correct. If you select the PolyExtrude node and scroll down to the bottom you will discover that the node is Adding Vertex Normals to the result and removing point normals. Turn this off if you just want to keep point normals from the input geometry.
