According to section 6.6 at page 66 in the Download Service TG (http://inspire.ec.europa.eu/documents/technical-guidance-implementation-inspire-download-services) there are a lot of metadata elements in the extended Get Capabilities document that are not implemented in the Geoserver, namely: The resource type, temporal reference, Responsible Organisation, Metadata Point Of Contact, Metadata Date, Metadata Language, Spatial Data Service Type, Response Language, Supported Languages, Get Download Service Metadata Operation Metadata, Get Spatial Dataset Operation Metadata, Get Describe Spatial Dataset Operation Metadata ...
This is a known limitation described here http://docs.geoserver.org/latest/en/user/extensions/inspire/using.html
Workaround
Edit the wms.xml and wfs.xml file in the data_dir.
The only issue here is that if anything is changed in the interface the file(s) gets overwritten, so the service should be firstly fully configured in the interface (GUI) and than edited in the Notepad++. Keep a copy of the extended capabilities section for further use.
