One very important thing to realize about the application schema module is
that it will only work against target schemas that respect the whole set of
GML rules (which are many and I don't remember exactly).

The two times I had to deal with complex features I had non GML compliant
target schemas, one time it was close enough that I could install in
GeoServer
an custom made XSLT hack that transformed the GML compliant xml generated by
app schema to the expected one, the second time it was so far away that
I ended up building a custom feature store (not based on Content*,
implementing directly the FeatureStore inteface) that builds complex
features
out of the application internal object model (it's a GML frontend to an
existing
app that already has its own object model).

So beware, before you invest significant time trying to use the app-schema
module make sure you are playing against its inteded usage, and/or make sure
to allocate enough time in your estimates to extend it to match your needs.

Cheers
Andrea
