Ralf Handl commented on ODATA-322:
----------------------------------

Can we use metadata:service-document to be consistent with metadata:function-import?
Or jiust metadata:service similar to app:service?

> Service documents allow a hypermedia-driven client to dynamically explore services. Such clients should be able to navigate across services that may not share the same root metadata or service document.
> Supporting nested service documents (service documents referencing other service documents) allows a federated experience including data from multiple loosely-coupled services.
> In ATOM service documents clients today model this by exposing a collection whose type is application/atomsvc+xml. We should call out that usage explicitly, and support a similar "ServiceDocument" entry in JSON service documents.
