Shaw, PostGIS maps all unquoted identifiers to lowercase. You must call your table "locality" (without the quotes) in your mapping if your table is really called "locality". Please use pgadmin3 or psql \dt to confirm your table name, as the mapping file is case-sensitive.
app-schema supports one-to-many mapping, either via feature chaining or via multi-valued simple properties (you could use a denormalised view to deliver these). Kind regards, Ben.
