[ODE] BSP and ODE's collision system

On a related note... If ODE had a 'frustum' collision primitive, could
that be used efficiently for view culling?  Even just a cone or pyramid
primitive might be sufficient, whatever computes fastest...  During the
collision callback, you could build a collection of visible primitives
(whatever collides with the frustum/cone/whatever), and then pass the
collection to the rendering code afterward.

Just thinking out loud.
