----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

          Components: WFS
    Affects Versions: 1.4.0

My mail to the Geoserver-users list, with Chris Holmes' reply

* I think it would be nice to (also) return the bounding box when the
client requests the gml:boundedBy property.

Yes, I agree. Could you make a separate feature request in our tracker
for that? We already have the infrastructure to make the boundedBy - we
just need to put a switch to activate it when a user requests it...

Sample request:
<wfs:GetFeature service="WFS" version="1.0.0"
  outputFormat="GML2"
  xmlns:topp="http://www.openplans.org/topp&quot;
  xmlns:wfs="http://www.opengis.net/wfs&quot;
  xmlns:ogc="http://www.opengis.net/ogc&quot;
  xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance&quot;
  xmlns:gml="http://www.opengis.net/gml&quot;
  xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.opengis.net/wfs
                      http://schemas.opengis.net/wfs/1.0.0/WFS-basic.xsd&quot;
  maxFeatures="5">
  <wfs:Query typeName="cbs:wijk_2005_gen">
    <ogc:PropertyName>gml:boundedBy</ogc:PropertyName>
    <ogc:PropertyName>the_geom</ogc:PropertyName>
    <ogc:PropertyName>WK_CODE</ogc:PropertyName>
    <ogc:PropertyName>GM_CODE</ogc:PropertyName>
    <ogc:PropertyName>WK_NAAM</ogc:PropertyName>
    <ogc:PropertyName>GM_NAAM</ogc:PropertyName>
  </wfs:Query>
</wfs:GetFeature>

Note the gml:boundedBy property. This should let Geoserver return the bounding box, even if the switch in the server has been turned off.
