With out-of-the-box MapServer, basically your underlying data structure
is displayed as a pre-defined XML content model.

One option you can checkout is using mapscript as a wrapper for WxS
services (see http://mapserver.gis.umn.edu/docs/howto/wxs_mapscript),
where you can put logic in between the request and reponse model of OGC
services in MapServer.

In this case, you could do an XSLT transformation on the generic-ish
MapServer WFS response to make it look like WFS-G, then sending back to
the client.

Hope this helps
