> There are two parts to this issue:
> 1) The AppliesTo attribute of edm:Term can only be used to refer to metadata-based annotations.  It would be desirable to enhance this so that it can also be used for instance annotations.  I discussed this with Ralf, and he suggested one approach would be to update AppliesTo to also allow terms like:
> TypeInstance, CollectionInstance, EntityTypeInstance, ReferenceInstance, etc. or even just Instance
> 2) There is currently no way to include in the metadata document what instance annotations can be expected for particular types.  We should also allow this information in the metadata document.
