I got the views_node_feed
module working,
but I need to hand code all the themed XML content, which I don't mind  
doing, but it isn't very forward-looking and high maintenance as  
solutions go.

The output you're talking about sounds pretty good.
Which of the 3 options you've mentioned is the easiest to implement?
