      Description

      OData-CSDL, section 14.4.7 allows If without third ("else") child only as a direct descendant of a Collection. But the following would also make sense:

      <Collection>
 <If>
  <Path>IsLTR</Path>
  <String>margin-left</String>
  <If>
   <Path>IsRTL</Path>
   <String>margin-right</String>
  </If>
 </If>
</Collection>

      This would add "margin-left" or "margin-right" to the collection for left-to-right and right-to-left scripts, respectively, but add nothing, e.g., for top-to-bottom scripts. The If without "else" is embedded in another If.
