There's 2 ways to handle that one:

- Having 3 distinct geometry columns for your layer (point, line,  
polygon)
   and choosing the right one client side.

- Using GeometryCollection which is an abstract geometry type able to
   store any kind of geometry inside.

Never tested the second one with TinyOWS + OL.

Could be done with a text field associated to an additional geometry  
point.
