If its market share of deployed MOM components that lie strangely
unused, its MSMQ.
If market share of paid-for MOM matters, isn't MQSeries effectively
a de-facto standard?
But as I've said before, last time I checked the MQSeries API really
only worked in threaded clients.

From an MQSeries point of view it seems like IBM have been moving
towards a more JMS-like API for their non-java clients, particularly
as of version 7.
From a pure layman's perspective on JMS, we've successfully been
using JMS clients with qpid for both basic (pub/sub, point to point)
and more advanced (LVQ) operations. This would appear to bode well for
its flexibility from a messaging point of view.
The main need we've run across for a lower level java api comes from
performing administrative functions from code - a standardised admin
api would certainly be useful (cf. MQSeries PCF). I'm not sure there
would be much benefit from shoehorning this into either JMS or a
messaging api though.
