It seems to me that it would be a lot cleaner to just have octp nodes, since the renderer has to process them all anyway...but I'm more familiar with BSP trees so it's hard for me to say.

Hmm... I think an octr node wouldn't be such a bad idea. Then we just look at the _types_ of the children, not the number. This also allows us to have less than 8 children in an octree node, that way we don't have any empties.
So it's just the Octree header and then either 1 poly node or 2-8 other octr nodes. Simple enough.
