------------------------------------

             Summary: Define ExpandOptions for nav property in $select
                 Key: ODATA-1364
                 URL: https://issues.oasis-open.org/browse/ODATA-1364
             Project: OASIS Open Data Protocol (OData) TC
          Issue Type: New Feature
          Components: Protocol, URL Conventions
    Affects Versions: V4.01_OS
         Environment: [Proposed]
            Reporter: Michael Pizzo
             Fix For: V4.02_WD01


The defined semantics for a navigation property in $select is to include the navigation link in the response body. However, that navigation link may be opaque, making it difficult for a generic hypermedia-driven client to append options such as nested selects/expands.  There should be a way to specify that the response should include a navigation link that selects a subset of rows, and properties, in a certain order, with certain nested properties expanded, etc.  In short, everything that you could specify if you $expanded the navigation property inline.
