                 Key: ODATA-364
                 URL: http://tools.oasis-open.org/issues/browse/ODATA-364
             Project: OASIS Open Data Protocol (OData) TC
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: OData CSDL
    Affects Versions: V4.0_WD01
         Environment: [Proposed]
            Reporter: Ralf Handl
             Fix For: V4.0_WD01


Chapters 8 and 9 state that 
- Properties MUST NOT have the same name as the declaring entity type.
- Properties MUST NOT have the same name as the declaring complex type.

This sometimes prevents using natural names for properties, e.g. 
- EntityType Employee
- EntityType Manager inherits from Employee
- EntityType Employee has NavigationProperty that leads to the manager

The natural name for the navigation property is Manager, but prevented by the above rule. So the navigation property has to be named "TheManager" or "manager" (using different case)
