[OASIS Issue Tracker] (ODATA-923) $expand (or $include) for $metadata to include referenced schemas

[ https://issues.oasis-open.org/browse/ODATA-923?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=62868#comment-62868 ] 

Michael Pizzo commented on ODATA-923:
-------------------------------------

Questions: 

1) Do we want/need a way to support all namespaces referenced by elements within a particular namespace?  i.e., the closure of all namespaces needed to understand the types within a particular namespace, without calling in all the other namespaces that may be part of the referenced documents?  i.e., Customers/*?

2) Do we want a way to exclude certain namespaces? (i.e., prefixing with a minus sign (-) )

3) Should the odata namespaces (especially core) be included by "*" or should we require explicitly including them (since they will be in most schemas but probably don't need to be fetched each time)?

> After being able to partition large services into smaller ones using cross-service navigation we might want to support requesting multiple of these small files in one request, similar to expanding an entity and including related entities.
