That (1) is pretty much exactly what I would do. Make a component that parses your XML into an associative array. Get your controller action to pass the uploaded XML to this component, then use the array data to create and save instances of your model(s).
I agree a lot of heavy lifting can be done in a model, but I wouldn't put XML parsing in there as it is a generic action.
