properties in [propertyList] of context URL may be qualified with type
----------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: ODATA-524
                 URL: http://tools.oasis-open.org/issues/browse/ODATA-524
             Project: OASIS Open Data Protocol (OData) TC
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: OData Protocol 
    Affects Versions: V4.0_CS01
         Environment: [Proposed]
            Reporter: Michael Pizzo
             Fix For: V4.0_CS02


Our current context URL for projected entities includes the selected properties:

 {context-url}#{entity-set}{/type-name}{property-list}

The abnf for property-list is:
propertyList         = OPEN propertyListItem *( COMMA propertyListItem ) CLOSE
propertyListItem     = STAR ; all structural properties
                     / propertyListProperty
propertyListProperty = primitiveProperty  
                     / primitiveColProperty 
                     / navigationProperty [ '+' ] [ propertyList ]
                     / selectPath [ "/" propertyListProperty ]

However, we need to be able to support properties being prefixed with type for the following types of queries:

~People?$select=ns.SalesPerson/Department,ns.Cashier/Register

Which should yield:

http://host/service/$metadata#People(ns.SalesPerson/Department,ns.Cashier/Register)
