[OASIS Issue Tracker] (ODATA-812) Allow omitting namespaces for unambiguous functions/actions
[ https://issues.oasis-open.org/browse/ODATA-812?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=60653#comment-60653 ] 

Steven Legg commented on ODATA-812:
-----------------------------------

There is still potential ambiguity if Something is a collection navigation property and a function. For example, given

GET ~/EntitySet(Key)/Something(key='foobar')

this could be calling the Something function or applying a key predicate to the Something collection.
