      For the "log" or "event record" use case a containment navigation property can be used. The contained "clone" is by definition different from its "original".

      Description

      This proposal extends Property to allow a type declared as an EntityType or Singleton.
      This is different from a NavigationProperty with ContainsTarget=True, in that the contained entities are not separately addressable; (either as a property of the EntityContainer or via its key property values and its EntitySet.)

      Using an EntityType in a property declaration is useful when storing the value of an Entity or collection of Entities, such as in a log or event record.
