Depending on what sort of processing and massaging you want to do, the app-schema extension may accomplish what you want. It is a pain to set up- no GUI - and there are some minor issues that the documentation doesn't quite prepare you for, but it is quite powerful. There are a couple of us now on the list working our way through the tutorial, flushing out bugs and having visions of app-schema GUIs dancing in our heads, so you won't be alone.  See http://docs.geoserver.org/stable/en/user/data/app-schema/index.html

Hello,
I am interested in writing a WFS-like service which will do a bit more than pull from 1 postGIS database...
I would like to do some application-level joins and possible processing/massaging of the data before it goes back to the client.
would I need to define a custom OWS service in my geoserver instance?
Can I still make this service look like a WFS call assuming that I format it in a format adhering to the WFS spec?
Thank you and regards,
