I've tested it with cylinders, spherical, onion, and spiral1.

It seems like uv_vectors has no effect at all.   Which would explain why the
patterns localized to a unit square don't show up in the other triangles.
Indeed, adding scale 3 to the torus object pattern applies the scaled texture to
all 3 triangles.

This looks seriously broken.
