Sommer,
The short answer is yes, you can use GT to complete your project ... you might also want to consider looking into uDig. uDig is a thick client ... but does everything you wanted below, and uses GT under the covers (worst case, it has good code examples ... and it's licensed LGPL).

Hello,
I am currently evaluating, if GeoTools can be used as the framework for developing a specialized GIS Editor as a thin client. We want to get the background map from WMS, the edit featuretype from WFS and store the changed features to the database using WFS-T (GeoServer). The client shall only implement the user interface and the necessary interaction with the server using standard interfaces.
I think that GeoTools can be used for getting the features from the WFS server and manipulating them on the client, maybe even to render them on the client. But I could not find out, if it is possible to use a WFS-T server to write the data back to the server. If this is not possible it would help to be able to generate GML from the GeoTools features.
As I am no Java developer, it is difficult for me to get this information from JavaDocs only and I hope, that someone in the list can give me the answers and help to decide, if it makes sense to invest more time in understanding GeoTools.
Best Regards,
Gerhard
