HI Michelle,
I have no familiarity with mapserver template output, but from a cursory
glance at the documentation
I believe you could do similar things by using GeoServer XSLT based output
format generator:
http://docs.geoserver.org/stable/en/user/extensions/xslt/index.html
To get something more similar to mapserver one you'd probably have to build
a new module using freemarker
to do the same job. If you find the the XSLT module unsuitable you can
still propose and develop a new community module
based on freemarker to run templated outputs, we welcome new contributors.
Cheers
Andrea
