[OASIS Issue Tracker] (ODATA-748) Section 4.5.4: odata.count needs to be allowed for all collections

[ https://issues.oasis-open.org/browse/ODATA-748?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Ralf Handl updated ODATA-748:
-----------------------------

        Summary: Section 4.5.4: odata.count needs to be allowed for all collections  (was: CLONE - Sections 4.5.4 and 4.5.5: odata.count and odata.nextLink are allowed for all collections)
    Description: 
Section 4.5.4 restricts the odata.count annotation to collections of entities or entity references.

Part 2: URL Conventions allows the system query option $count for arbitrary collections.
       Proposal: Remove the restriction to collections of entities and entity references as it contradicts the Core specification.  (was: Remove the restriction to collections of entities and entity references; we allow server-driven paging and use of the $count system query option for all collections. See also section 7.3 that explicitly contains an example for a collection of string values.)
