Amy, The WFS GetFeature implementation is slightly different for the <WebServiceRequest> tool and the WFS-T example (which we should harmonize). The stylesheet that generates the actual request for the WebServiceRequest tool is in lib/tool/xsl/wfs_GetFeature.xsl. The WebServiceRequest tool will can also add a filter to the request (but is probably still buggy).
In the Model-View-Controller design pattern, the result of your GetFeature request is a Model object which contains just the raw information - the targetModel property of the WebServiceRequest tool. You can represent that information in any way you like using one or more widgets, e.g. rendered as a map in 2D using MapPaneOL, or as a text list of features in an HTML table, etc. Simply add in the desired widgets to the model.
