This is standard for the SOAP API.

Browser GUI (HTML) access to find_xx capabilities are not standardized and 
will vary.  Some will provide a form with text boxes for you to enter a 
tModelKey and keyValue.  Other GUIs may only let you query using "checked" 
taxonomies.

Publishing the taxonomy tModel (unchecked) is typically available using a 
browser GUI.

Again, publishing businesses, services, or tModels is usually supported in 
browser GUIs, but the ability to use an unchecked taxonomy in those 
published entities (in the  categoryBag) will vary.  The SOAP publishing 
API certainly lets you request publication using unchecked taxonomies, its 
just the browser GUI's that vary from one UDDI implementation to another.
