Allow NavigationPropertyPath and PropertyPath expressions to end in annotations of appropriate type
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: ODATA-517
                 URL: http://tools.oasis-open.org/issues/browse/ODATA-517
             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: V4.1_WD01


Currently NavigationPropertyPath expressions must end with a navigation property name, and PropertyPath expressions must end with the name of a structural property.

On the other hand annotations add "virtual properties", so a NavigationPropertyPath expression could as well end with an annotation of type Edm.EntityType or any concrete entity type (or a collection of these), and a PropertyPath expression could end with an annotation of types Edm.ComplexType, Edm.PrimitiveType, or a concrete primitive, enumeration, or complex type, or a type definition.
