That's not quite true, you can force files on a partition to be re-created using extents with something like the below:
find /home -xdev -type f -print0 | xargs -0 chattr +e find /home -xdev -type d -print0 | xargs -0 chattr +e
Cheers,

chattr and lsattr shipped with CentOS 5.6 do not seem ext4 aware. Those utilities come from e2fsprogs and e4fsprogs doesn't include alternate versions. +e is an invalid parameter for chattr and lsattr doesn't show the extent attribute for any files.
