Well, it's not just an issue of supporting pubsub, since even a fully 
supporting pubsub client would still have no idea what your packet is about.  
If you are inventing a new kind of packet, you will have to modify the client 
to understand it.

That said, if you want the client to display the item as a "normal chat 
message", then just send a normal message stanza and forget pubsub.
