ipfs object is a plumbing command for the merkledag. it must not be aware of (or make assumptions about) datastructures on top, like unixfs. IsDir is unixfs specific. An ipfs unix (or maybe ipfs files) command is planned that will be unixfs specific. IsDir this belongs there, not here.
Sorry @cryptix -- this is my fault for doing lousy CR :( -- i should've explained this then.
