Hrm.  I don't think that this is good enough, but I agree now it's not 
vitally important, either.

BTW, the siggraph 2000 subdivision notes have good ideas for multires, 
one of which is that multires verts are stored as vectors (with 
displacement as vector length I presume) away from the  catmull-clarke 
subd surface.  Might be a good idea to look at them (if you haven't 
already):
