No complex feature to GeoJSON transformation is possible now. I think the
GeoJSON spec doesn't give any recommendations on complex features, though I
suppose it should be fairly straightforward.
Going XML to JSON wouldn't be nearly as fast as going straight to JSON from
the actual Feature objects. I don't think it should be hard to extend the
JSON writer to iterate through full complex features, and I believe would be
a welcome patch. If you're interested someone more knowledgeable than I can
direct you at the code and what you'd need to do. Should be fairly self
contained, relatively easy to wrap your head around and get coding.
