Thanks for the comments Paul,
We need to support GeoSciML and set up 'Production' systems and services to support the OneGeology and Seegrid projects. http://www.onegeology.org/ http://www.seegrid.csiro.au/ As to the meaning of support: 'serve and consume GeoSciML' for starters. The consumption could be via spatial client, OGC browser, statistics package or anything else that our friendly Geoscientists want to throw it it. Our priority concern is to serve the WFS in a 'Production' environment. We (and a number of other Geological Survey organisations) currently have sites operational.

I don't know of any substantial user interface framework that allows you to manipulate complex (non-flat, multi-geometry) GML sources at this date. The best I know of is uDig, and while it can generally ingest complex things it largely ignores the complexity for the purposes of user interface display and editing. One of the problems is coming up with a UI paradigm that one the one hand is capable of handling complex things but on the other is not so complexified as to make the 99% case of handling simple things untenable.
