You don't use MsgUnits when subscribing so if you have a msgUnit in the 
client interface, then it is a publish/publishOneway/publishArray, an 
update or the return of a get.

if isQuery is true then the KeyData object is a QueryKeyData which is 
used in erase, get, unSubscribe and subscribe.

If isQuery is false, then it is a MsgKeyData which is used in publish, 
update and in the return value in get.

If you need a finer division than query/Message then we could add the 
methods you suggested (or a String getType() method returning "publish" 
...). But are you really working directly with KeyData ? in the 
org.xmlBlaster.client.key package there are a set of decorators which 
should be used instead.
