That sounds good.  We can stipulate that a packet MUST always contain at least 3 octets of frames.  Adding a couple of padding octets is probably a good idea.

Note that we're probably changing the encoding of packet numbers (again, yeah, sorry), so the precise set of 

Not sure whether you mean that you always XOR 4 octets (which means XOR over the encrypted payload if the packet number is <4), or whether you only XOR the octets of the packet number.  With the proposed move of the packet number length to the first octet, it's probably better to only XOR the octets of the packet number.  That way you don't touch the payload octets other than to sample them.
