if you want to create it programmatically, there is elementtree, dom, minidom and sax in the standard library. I always seen (and used) lxml as the best package to work with xml, both for parsing and creation. Web2py and its templates can handle xml generation pretty well too.
How to create an interface to let your "dumb" (as in programming skill) users fill that structure is entirely up to you.
