Ralf Handl commented on ODATA-482:
----------------------------------

One popular use case is combining this with delta requests to get new items in a "blog" of structured entities that link to unstructured content (articles, videos, ...).

Back to the Atom roots :-)

> Stream properties are similar to navigation properties as they "defer" content to a separate resource. It would be nice to be able to inline that related content similarly to related entities.
> This could be done by generalizing $expand, by adding a special query option $inline or $include for stream properties, or in $select as proposed in ODATA-10.
