FYI the workaround for this is to publish your survey with the geoshape geometry in the form but add a pulldata statement to create a join field to a dataset which contains the multipart geometry youre after.
Once the survey is published, I run a script that then updates the geometry of the Survey geoshape based on the linked datasets geometry..
Copilot and i mashed up a script. we're becoming good friends.
the script runs locally for now. hoping to get notebooks enabled on AGOL so i can automate it hourly or triggered by a data submission . I (well copilot...) also did an optimised version that refines the source dictionary by the features that need updating. this saves time if your source has lots of features...

# 6. Apply updates if updates: result = target_layer.edit_features(updates=updates) print(f"Updated {len(updates)} features at {datetime.datetime.now()}") else: print("No matching features found to update.")
