Moving triangle meshes were not so robust from what I've read. 

Bullet can be used as alternative for convex hull support, as well as all 
combinations between convex hull, capped cylinder, triangle, capsule etc.
And also collision sweep query between all combinations. 

It is not meant as replacement, as an alternative / addition. Just like 
OPCODE is an addition to ODE.
