Ken Giusti commented on QPID-2248:
----------------------------------

My summary is a bit oversimplified: I'm proposing that we move the distinction 
between what is a "statistic" and what is a non-statistic out of the functional 
API and make it part of the schema that describes the data instead.

This results in QMF not needing to know if a bit of data is considered a 
"statistic" or a "property" - that's left to the application that uses the 
data.  QMF becomes more data-agnostic.

An additional benefit is that this simplifies the API proper quite a bit.  
Looking at the code as it stands now, for every "getProperty()"-like call, 
there is a parallel "getStatistic()" call.  In reality, QMF doesn't really 
distinguish between the two.  Removing this distinction in the API makes a lot 
of code duplication go away.

We kept the term "property" because it's generic - it now applies to all data 
(non-method) items.

thanks,

-K
