ValueTerms should support primitive types, complex types, and collections, but not entitytypes or collections of entitytypes
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: ODATA-106
                 URL: http://tools.oasis-open.org/issues/browse/ODATA-106
             Project: OASIS Open Data Protocol (OData) TC
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: OData CSDL v1.0
         Environment: [Proposed]
            Reporter: Michael Pizzo


Section 15, "Vocabulary Terms" describes a value term as follows:

"A value term extends an existing instance with additional data. A value term is limited to a single field, however that field may be an entity type or a complex type."

In fact, a value term can be single field, or collection, but cannot reference an entity type (or collection of entity types).

Also, the wording could be improved.
